From my own experience, yes, you so can. I might warn you though, it needs rooting your device, which can brick your phone. I'm not responsible for any damage, so here what I do.

Example: You have an android phone with Android 2.2, and you want android 2.3 gingerbread. Before doing anything else, go to XDA developers forum, and search for you device and the custom roms. If you see any android 2.3 roms in there, then go in, and read the comments to make sure that it's working on other phones too. If people are commenting with "thanks", "it's great", "perfect ROM" or any other positive feedback, then you can root your phone, and put that custom ROM on your device.
