You can, but it's hardly the done thing and is only usually done if there is some pressing constitutional reason for him to do so. Also, it would be a bit of a swizz to happily lap up the very generous revenues from the Civil List and the Duchy of Cornwall for 50-odd years and then say 'Nah, you're alright' when asked to do the job for which you received those perks.
