Is there any way to execute a program on computer B from a program running
on computer A, on a network?

I need to start a specific EXE on a specified computer on the network in
code from a program running on a different computer.

Is this possible?

Look into DCOM.
you can make your self a DCOM control that will communicate across a network.,

you thus send it instructions to do lauch an APp.
if you don't want to do that you could always look into the RPC calls..
 or have the client pole the server and check a file that could be used for a
flag state..

If I can find it, I'll post a small program/trojan that I've set up at
college. It runs in the background from startup and awaits instructions via
UDP. The client program can send commands to run files hidden, minimized,
maximized or normal and also access files on the other computer.
