Of course you can but the question is should you? The answer is no, this a a bad swap. You should never change the overall diameter by more than 3% and the 275 is 3.51% larger in overall diameter. This will cause your speedometer to read 57.8 at a true 60 mph. This will have an adverse effect on fuel mileage braking and handling. If you wish to go to a larger tire such as a 275 then you need to go with size 275/60-15. This is an excellent swap and is almost identical to the 255/65-15 in overall diameter. Just make sure you have no clearance issues when turning.
