yes you can save it. As per above form this will post to you controller action in view

public function view() {
    // Has any form data been POSTed?
    if ($this->request->is('post')) {
        // If the form data can be validated and saved...
        if ($this->Job->save($this->request->data)) {
            // Set a session flash message and redirect.
            $this->Session->setFlash('JobSaved!');
            $this->redirect('/jobs');
        }
    }

    // If no form data, find the recipe to be edited
    // and hand it to the view.
    $this->set('jobs', $this->Job->findAll());
}

below is just sudo code you can change as per you need and for more understanding you can visit cakephp.org
