Yes, as long as you don't increase the load in access of the circuit capacity. Just connect new wire in parallel - That is black to black, white to white and bare wire to bare wire.

Make sure power is off before doing any wiring. Make sure connections are made properly and made inside the light fixture electric mounting box.

How do you add additional wall outlets to walls that have existing outlets without tearing out drywall?

Sometimes you have to be creative.Check the basement, if you have access to the floor just below the existing outlet AND the proposed new outlet, you can often drill a hole through the floor and into the wall space to feed wire through to the proposed outlet. If that isn't available, you can sometimes do the same thing through an attic space.If neither is an option, you may need to punch a few holes through the walls and drill through existing framing materials to run your wires.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
