No, the only way you may call yourself a social worker is if you are licensed by your state either as a Licsensed Social Worker, Clinical Social Worker, or Licensed Clinical Social Worker. If you choose to work in the social service field, your agency will probably provide you with the title of caseworker, counselor, social service worker. The term "Social Worker" is a legal definition, no different than "Attorney" or "Medical Doctor."
