YES, you can. if you brush them too hard they can bleed and that's not good. if you brush them so hard they bleed all the time, you can get infections in the cuts you are creating.

Brushing your tooth too hard can also cause gum recession. And if you brush your teeth horizontally it can damage your tooth necks. Here's a video with more info about problems that can be caused by brushing your teeth the wrong way -

You probably wont but the following will happen if you do-
"If you brush too hard or with too hard of a brush it could cause a couple problems. It could make your gums recede or pull back and/or it can cause you to wear away the enamel or root surface on your tooth. You should brush gently with a soft or extrasoft toothbrush. The goal of brushing is to remove plaque, which is soft, it doesn't require scrubbing or hard bristles to remove it. If it has a chance to turn hard, into tartar, no amount of brushing will remove it. You have to have it removed with a professional dental cleaning"

This is not an excuse for you to not brush your teeth at all just saying that brushing your teeth too hard is not good.
Also if you are really interested you can read the following from:

Your gums need the right amount of stimulation. Too much pressure and you are in danger of damaging your gums, but ignoring them altogether can lead to gum disease and a build-up of plaque. According to the American Dental Association, "Plaque also produces substances that irritate the gums, making them red, tender or bleed easily." Plaque and tartar often develop along the gum line, but do not attempt to over-brush this area if your teeth don't become clean after a regular brushings. A trip to the dentist is in order. If you notice that your gums are pulling away from teeth, or that your gums seem to recede more on one tooth than the others, you may be brushing too hard. The ADA further explains on their website the basic tips of brushing your teeth. For our purposes of gum health, note that you should hold your tooth brush at a forty-five degree angle against your gum-line.
As long as you use a soft toothbrush and brush correctly (up and down), you should have great dental health no matter how much you brush your teeth. Otherwise, you may cause your gums to erode.
No but, you are usually suppose to brush at least three times a day. I advise no more than nine times a day, but You will not lose your teeth.
No, but you can end up making your gums bleed, like i sometimes do
It's hard on the enamel and they say it makes gums recede
It probably is not bad for you but if you brush your teeth too hard AND too long then that's too bad for you.

Get a tooth brush and tooth paste and there brush your teethβ¦.DUH!!
You can but I do not suggest it, 2 times daily is enough, after breakfast and before bed. But if you eat something sugary, say, Cake, it can help rid away the cavity-makers. There are 2 risks when brushing your teeth too often. The first is that the teeth enamel (the teeth coating layer) might wear out with too many brushing. The second issue is generating pressure on the gums, which weakens them and might cause gingivitis in some (rare)cases.Another AnswerI brush my teeth 2 times a day. Once in the morning and Once before I go to bed. Many people say to brush your teeth after every meal, but that's too hard to remember! haha XD
