Sure! This works for me:

class A:
  def __init__(self):
    names = 'n1', 'n2'
    for n in names:
      setattr(self, "get%s" % n, self._createGetter(n))

  def _createGetter(self, n):
    def f(): return n
    return f

if __name__ == "__main__":
    a=A()
    print a.getn1()
    print a.getn2()
