The title says it all. I have a private key that is BIP38 encrypted:

6PYVdYvBaMXD7bFNJwMh8DCTxcBQjzyPmqWDQDp2PBKYyFUACph7vzjeaN

Is there a way to derive the address from just that information?

This doesn't appear to be possible from reading the BIP38 draft specification. However in this specific case, the key you have posted is a example from the moneywagon python module documentation. The password is 123 and the address is 1BrUfC75qyLQxxp7qcisfaMmwRMECo4ETC.

    I'd say _mathematically probable_, because it could be brute forced, but could take a very long time to be successful. – Colin Dean Sep 05 '15 at 17:34
