No, you cannot. The only functions the grasshopper's head has is eating and sensing.
Grasshoppers instead breathe through air tubes, called spiracles, along the sides of the abdomen and the thorax. Respiration is performed using tracheae, air-filled tubes which open at the surfaces of the thorax and abdomen through pairs of spiracles. The spiracle valves only open to allow oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange. The tracheoles, found at the end of the tracheal tubes, are insinuated between cells and carry oxygen throughout the body. However, if you held its entire body underwater, you can succeed in drowning it.
