Yes, you can. In the United States, a will must be admitted to court for probate of the estate shortly after the death of the testator (person who signed the will). Any heir at law, taker under the will or creditor of the estate can file a legal action to compel the presentation of the will to court.

There may be a few areas left where the lawyer or law firm that drew up the will, and has kept the original, will hold an old-fashioned "reading of the will" with all interested parties present, but it has become infrequent. Lawyers and law firms charge a lot more than they used to.
