This is from St. Paul's letter to the Romans where we receive a spirit of adoption during baptism through which we can now call God, Father:
By dying with Christ in the waters of baptism and rising with him in a rebirth to new life, God makes us His adopted children, heirs to the life which Christ shares with the Father. But you are not in the flesh; on the contrary, you are in the spirit, if only the Spirit of God dwells in you. Whoever does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him. But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the spirit is alive because of righteousness. If the Spirit of the one who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, the one who raised Christ from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also, through his Spirit that dwells in you. . . . For those who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received a spirit of adoption, through which we cry, "ABBA, Father!" The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if only we suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him.(Rom 8:9-11, 14-17 )

Yes, although most Pastors discourage the practice.Canon 856 of the Code of Canon Law says that, although Baptism may be celebrated on any day, it is commendable to celebrate it ordinarily on Sunday or, if possible, at the Easter Vigil. The Code also encourages Baptism during the celebration of the Eucharist so that the relationship between Baptism and Eucharist will be clearly seen.Since Lent is sufficiently close to Easter, most Pastors recommend that the baptism be performed at Easter.
