Yes there is a tool called "Intel® One Boot Flash Update utility" (OFU), which allows you to update BIOS in Windows or Linux. It's included in the BIOS and Firmware Update, Configuration Utilities for Windows*/Linux*/WinPE/UEFI.
However the problem is the BIOS/Firmware package for OFU is not the latest yet... If you use OFU, you can update to BIOS 35. If you want to update to latest version 41, you'll have to use EFI package.
I'll check if the OFU update package will be released soon.
