Yes you can, although you will need to blank them off on the inlet pipe to avoid any un-filtered and un-metered air being let in the engine.

Technically it will fail an mot also, as crank case gases shouldn't be vented to atmosphere, however I haven't met an MOT inspector that knows this rule yet!
