Of course you can! However, there may be consequences. If your employer does not allow breaks, you could get fired. Sometimes that is unfair, because you need a break to go to the bathroom or you are just too exhausted by physical labor to continue working. You have to decide if the break is worth the risk of losing your job. In some states, breaks are covered by labor laws. In New York State, for example, most employers are required to provide one 15-minute break when the employee is working 4 hours (that would be a paid break) and one 30-minute break on an 8 hour shift (this is not a paid break). You can only do your best! If you MUST stop working due to physical issues (bathroom/exhaustion), you'll just have to do it. There is no choice, really, since you MUST. If, on the other hand, you just WANT a break because you're tired, you might need to just focus on the prize: your pay at the end of the week! Keep working.
Sometimes, people keep working in dangerous physical conditions, like they are feeling lightheaded or dehydrated. In these cases, it's a medical issue, so you'd have to take care of it. Otherwise, you could end up in the hospital!

Why should you take a break from the computer?
You should take a break from the computer because it helps to get out and excersise. It is also good to move around once and a while instead of staring at a screen all day. You need a break when you're working on something - your brain gets bogged down after 20-30 minutes of hard focusing and you need to stop for about 5 minutes and do something else like physical exercise. This keeps your brain alert and focused. Working on the computer is also hard on your eyes, so you need to take a break and rest them every 20-30 minutes.
