Can you? Yes.
Should you? Most likely not. I think that was from before the days of steel shot and not many guns and even fewer doubles whether SxS or O/U from those days are recommended for steel shot use. If you do make darn sure to use a fairly open choke unless you want it to blow the end of barrel out to a new size. I doubt I'd use tighter than IC and really if it were mine I'd just not use steel at all in it.
