Sure you can!
All you need to do is remove the plant from the ground with as much of the roots intact as possible (which is easier to do with potted plants than those planted in the ground). Then very carefully wash the root ball, gently removing the dirt. You want to remove absolutely all of the dirt if possible, but close is good enough. Better to err on the side of not damaging the roots than getting all the dirt.
Once that's done you just transplant it into the hydroponic system and start it up.
Sometimes, it's a good idea to keep the plant isolated for a period (quarantine), for example, not introducing it into a system that contains healthy, established hydroponic plants for a week or so. Even small particles of soil may harbour pathogens that we not harmful to the plant in soil, however, they could be infectious and spread rapidly in re-circulating hydroponics systems. Inoculating valued plants with beneficial microbial products (for example, containing "trichoderma")that colonize the growing medium and plants roots will not only help to prevent diseases; it can also improve growth rates and yields.
Keep in mind that like any transplantation your plant will experience stress and shock, and likely look very sick for a few days or even a couple weeks. Focus your attention on the newest growth since that's where the plant will be focusing most of it's survival efforts. It's a pretty big change for a plant grown in soil to find itself suddenly in a hydroponic system so the success rate is likely to be less than 100% especially for a beginner hydroponicist.
A product that adds vitamin B to the solution will reduce stress and help the plant transition more smoothly. I've used B-52 and Organic-B on different occasions for this purpose and they helped immensely.

How can I successfully transfer my pothos plant from water to soil?
To successfully transfer your pothos plant from water to soil, gently remove the plant from the water, shake off excess water from the roots, and plant it in a well-draining potting mix. Make sure the soil is moist but not waterlogged, and place the plant in a location with indirect sunlight. Water the plant regularly and monitor its growth to ensure it adapts well to the soil.
How can I transfer avocado from water to soil effectively?

Modification of money plant?
The root is a plant's underground portion that takes water and minerals from the soil while also firmly anchoring the plant. The roots of some plants change shape and become changed in order to absorb and transfer water and minerals from the soil to various areas of the plant.
How are genes transfered from plants into the soil?
Plants release organic materials such as root exudates and debris into the soil, which contain genetic material from the plant itself. This genetic material can persist in the soil and be taken up by microorganisms through processes like horizontal gene transfer. These microorganisms can then transfer the genetic material between themselves and potentially to other organisms in the soil.
How can I transfer a plant from a plastic container to a pot?
To transfer a plant from a plastic container to a pot, gently remove the plant from the plastic container, loosen the roots, place the plant in the new pot with fresh soil, and water it thoroughly. Make sure the new pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
What happens to the root cells of a plant experiencing root burn?
Transpiration from the leaves is the major force driving the transfer of water into the cells of the root from the soil. The roots also use its high concentration of solutes to transfer water in by osmosis. If to much nutrients were added to the soil, that is increasing the solutes in the soil, the water would be transfered from the root cells to the soil. By this the roots may instead experience a water loss and the plant may die from dehydration.
What does a plant's root do?
roots help plants grow. Also the roots absorb the nutrence from the soil and transfer the nutrence up to the stem. the roots also grow to find more enriched soil.
Is soil a plant?

Why is type of soil important to the plant?
