Yes, you can. Mononucleosis is commonly called the 'kissing disease', but you don't have to kiss someone in order to get it. It is like any other virus and can be transmitted through any contact with an infected person. You can even get it from someone not showing any symptoms who has had it before, because once you've had mono it stays in your body forever. It can reactivate in someone without any symptoms and be passed to others.
