Yes, you can, but this is a very dangerous thing to do. Firstly, telnet is an insecure protocol, and anyone with a packet sniffer can find out your root password. Secondly, one should really never log in as the root account; use su or sudo after logging in as an ordinary user using a more secure protocol such as ssh.
There are some settings in some versions of telnet that may prevent root logins, but the standard telnet will allow that.
