If you can access the main lever inside the door from the outside of the car then you can open it.
But from what I remember of these handles, you cant get to anything from the outside.

You might be able to fish the lever up with a coat hanger or call a lock smith and his slim jim should work.

Might even be able to access the cabin through the trunk area.

which cutlass exactly is this, Cutlass Ciera, Cutlass Supreme?

I'd suspect your doors were frozen shut when you broke the handles, seen it happen. This pic below might help you fish/figure out how to get it open, and this link (http://www.autozone.com/az/cds/en_us/0900823d/80/0e/e4/f2/0900823d800ee4f2/repairInfoPages.htm).

Hope that helps.

I feel for You, I have a 1994 Cutlass 2 door. I had the same thing happen coming out of a casino in 112 degree heat in Las Vegas and broke both handles at the same time. They have a good price on replacement handles on E-bay.
