Yes, you can. When you add -ing to the verb to double, it forms the present participle, present tense of the verb doubling.

Example: We are doubling the recipe to have enough for the whole class.

The present participle of the verb also functions as an adjective, example:

(a doubling effect), and a gerund (doubling is the inverse of halving).
