yes you can. there are excellent guides on iFixIt:
For CoreDuo MacBooks: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Mac/MacBook-Core-Duo/86
For Core2Duo MacBooks: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Mac/MacBook-Core-2-Duo/Optical-Drive-Replacement/116/9/
Other guides: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Mac/
it looks like it's a little complicated, though not too bad. Certainly a lot easier than an iBook (then again, brain surgery was easier than replacing drives in an iBook!). If you are game, my advice is to go slow and keep a careful log as to which part screws in where, and in what order.
