The short answer is "yes". However, many precautions are needed first. The general rule is that if a ferret can fit his head in an opening the rest of the body can follow. All holes, cracks, vents, etc will need to be secured. All cabinets will need child-proof locks. Potted plants will need to be removed. After the initial "ferret-proofing" allow the ferret to walk around on a leash for his first few outings to discover if any problem areas were missed. Successfully ferret-proofing a house takes months and sometimes never happens completely. Ferrets are extremely mischievous and always trying new things. I recommend only allowing well supervised walks around the house.
