You can, but you probably won't like the result.

actually, no you cant.........you can only "mill" something on a "milling" machine (that why its called milling)

you can, however, get some cuting disks and sanding tools for a dremel and start hacking away. ussually the results are not that great though. you dont have enough control on a hand held tools to really do much more than make a mess.
