Yes you can.

Early in the morning (or late in the evening, depending on where in their orbits they are), just before/after the sun rises or sets, you can see Mercury and Venus.

Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are easily visible as particularly bight objects in the sky. A handy tip is stars 'twinkle', planets do not.

Uranus can be visible to the naked eye, but it is very faint and you need a location with no light pollution in order to see it (and it will twinkle as it is so small and faint).

Neptune, Pluto, Ceres, Eris and the other dwarf planets are either too far away or too small to see with the naked eye.
