Not unless you want the child's permanent teeth to be discolored.
Tetracycline antibiotics (of which doxycycline is a member) have a particular side effect that causes discoloration in developing bone. While purely cosmetic, the discoloration of teeth is permanent. For this reason, doxycycline is not given to children under 18 or to pregnant mothers (who could transmit the drug to the fetus, causing discolorations in teeth).
