If you are meaning the honorifics specifically, no they cannot. However homophonic 'words' (such as english Bridge and Chopsticks, or Nose and Flower [hashi and hana respectively]) there are similar names.
for example, San (Mr/Ms when an honorific) can be used as a name, however that meaning is not the same.
