Yes, you can. However, cooling systems on cars made in the last 60 years or so have expansion tanks, so any excess coolant will wind up there. If you overfill the expansion tank, the coolant will simply spill on the ground. This will be harmful to any animal stupid enough to drink it, but it will not hurt your car in any way.

How does coolant work?

Engine coolant is what I'm assuming you are talking about. Engine coolant is a mix of water and etholyn glycol (antifreeze). It pulls heat away from your engine block that builds up from the friction of moving parts. The coolant mix allows the coolant to get cold to a point and not freeze because of the etholyn glycol. It is also not good to put straight antifreeze into your engine because antifreeze does not have as much cooling potential as water antifreeze mix. Also if you have just antifreeze in your engine the antifreeze will boil at a much lower temperature than a mix of aproxamalty 50/50.
