using insert trigger to update

Is there a way to use an INSERT trigger to accomplish a (conditional) UPDATE command? My situation is that SQL*Loader is being used to itteratively load data records into a table. If the record is new, then the INSERT should proceed as normal. If the record already exists, the update command should work.

Thanks,
