Although I would not recommend it, yes you can as most are non-toxic.
If however you meant elemental Phosphorus instead of phosphors, NO, some form of Phosphorus are deadly poisons and white Phosphorus spontaneously ignites on contact with air!!!
If you don't know the difference between phosphors and Phosphorus, that is the subject of a different question.

Uv cathode ray tube?
A Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) is found in a Computer Monitor and is the most expensive part. Within the CRT are three electron guns, Red, Green and Blue. Each of these guns streams a steady flow of electrons left to right for each line of your monitor. As the electrons hit the phosphors on the CRT, the phosphor will glow certain intensities. As a new line begins the guns will then begin at the left and continue right, these guns will repeat this process sometimes thousands of time until the screen has been completely drawn line by line. Once the phosphors on the CRT have been hit with an electron they will only glow for a short period of time, because of this the CRT must be refreshed which means the process will be repeated.
How many pixels are there in a Cathode Ray Tube monitor?
There aren't pixels as such. the face of the CRT is coated with phosphors that light up when electrons strike them. The equivalent pixels would be a function of beam size. Moving on to later color CRTs, there was a mask overlay to force a pixel effect and isolate the RGB beams to one 'pixel' area. Pixels don't become real until you have a true digital display when there are in fact individual pixels to light up.

Why do fluroescent lights glow in the dark when swiched off?
A fluorescent tube contains (when operating) a plasma, and this excites phosphors coated on the inside of the tube. Some of these phosphors are phosphorescent, that is they will glow in the dark for a while due to being exposed to light. But that glow will soon cease. Other phosphors are fluorescent, that is they will glow only while excited. So the glow you observe is due to the phosphorescent particles in the coating, and they will soon diminish in brightness.
