This depends on whether or not your wheels are staggered (the front and rear wheels are different sizes). On some years of Corvette all four wheels were the same size, and on some they weren't. For example, I can't rotate the tires on my 95 Corvette because the rear tires are wider than the ones in front.
If your tires are different sizes from front to rear but wearing unevenly, an option would be to swap the tires from left to right, keeping them on the same end of the car (ex. right rear to left rear). However, it is very important to note that if your wheels or tires are unidirectional (side specific) or have an asymmetrical tread pattern (the tread changes as it moves across the tire), you won't be able to swap your tires.
Also, moving tires from one side to another isn't generally considered rotation. After all, the point of rotating tires and keeping them on the same side of the car is due to the fact that tires develop wear patterns based on your suspension and alignment.
Check the tire size for your year Corvette. If all of your tires are the same size, you can rotate them. If they are different sizes but you feel that uneven wear needs to be addressed, consult a mechanic you trust to discuss options.
