With permission from the copyright holder, yes. You would need permission from both the owner of the work itself (usually the composer, the organization that commissioned him or her to write it, or a copyright administrator representing either party) and the owner of the sound recording you intend to use (usually the record label).

You also need to contact the composer and get the rights from him to use the material. Often, there will be some royalty or other payment that the compose will request in turn for using his work.
