Yes you can. One of the most critical things about installing stone countertops is making sure that the surface it rests on is perfectly level. Care must be taken to shim your cabinets so that there are no voids between the cabinetry and the stone. Stone countertops are extremely heavy and can be susceptible to breakage if not handled properly. It is often best to leave the difficult jobs to the professionals. If you plan a do-it-yourself stone project, you must provide templates as well.
