You absolutely can! The Flute and piccolo are in the same key (the key of C) so you can definitely use a flute book or sheet music to play the piccolo. The only differences you will find is that the piccolo is an octave higher, and the keys are closer together, but with practice, it will be similar.

A fun fact for you-- the piano is also in the key of C (I believe) so you can also play piano music on your flute or piccolo. I have done this, and the only semi-difficult thing is that when the piano score has chords, you have to choose which part of the chord you will play. If you have other flautists with you, you can each play a different part of the chord, and it sounds beautiful. Or, if you don't mind transposing the music for different instruments, and you have friends that play different instruments, you can play a beautiful duet, trio, quartet, etc. with your friends!

Does a flute or a piccolo play a higher note?

A piccolo plays the higher note over the flute, because the Piccolo's small size can leed to a high pitch, and is designed to have a shorter stem, so it's not just a small flute, so it is way higher than the flute. --By exactly one octave. They do also have the same fingerings.
