Yes, you can just add the google analytics to a external js file. Like this:

functioncallGA() {

    ga.async = true;
    ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
    var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
} 

And after this, you call on every page or put in the same js external file:

callGA();
