Yes, honey bees can sting if they are females but no, they cannot if they are males.
Specifically, male bees (Apis spp) are called drones and females are either queens or workers. The male only has a barb in its sex organ, which causes it to die after mating. Females have barbed, rear-end stingers which can be used once by a worker bee and more than once by the queen bee.
