That depends on the application. You may or may not have room for it.

To go wider you would have to go with a 265/60-17 to keep the overall diameter the same as the OEM size to keep your speedometer accurate and other parameters close to the same. Like the first answer said you may have clearance issues especially on the front. Check your clearance with the OEM tire if you have around 2" clearance you should be ok. Make sure before buy the tires. My advice is stick with the OEM size.

Can you replace a 225 60 R17 with a 245 65 R17 tire?

NO! This is not an acceptable swap. The 245/65-17 is 6.91% (2") larger in overall diameter. It is never acceptable to go over or under 3% of the OEM size. This will adversely effect handling, stopping, performance, and fuel mileage. However a 205/65-17 would be an acceptable swap. I would advise you to stick with the OEM size.
