Try it yourself. Get a good yawn going with your mouth open (the ones you take when altitude changes, or if your in a plane), close the back of your throat off with your tongue as if you were going to exhale through your nose then make your ears "pop" by yawning harder and try exhaling through your nose, the air comes out your ears too.
can anyone else do this? Is this harmful?

Its very possible. Its actually not that uncommon. Many people can do it, but they dont realize. There are a few people who can release air from the corners of there eyes. My friend can do and its wierd as hell watching him do it under water.

I'm think if you can do that you must have punctured both ear drums at some time or other. The tympanic membrane that covers the opening to the middle ear is intact and completely blocks any entry from the outside - that's why they have to put tiny drainage tubes in the ears of small children with recurrent fluid build up in their inner ear, to prevent ear infections. If air is coming out of your ears, something has happened to yours. Shouldn't be able to do that.

If you can move air in or out through your ears, it means that your eardrums are perforated.
