In general, can annuals be sown before the last frost?
The soil is warm, weather trend has been great. But, we'll probably see a frost (zone 5).
Any input appreciated.

It depends. How's that for an answer? :-)
First of all, I'd poke around
Think about whether it's practical for you to build some sort of easily removal "tent" for covering seedlings when frost is expected. Take a look at this for a general idea.
Finally, consider the mechanical damage which can affect some seedlings. For instance, I would never start coleus, impatiens, browallia or other really tiny things outdoors. The sprouts are almost microscopic. Too easy to miss, too hard to transplant (easier sitting at a table).
