Can you shoot a 38 special bullet out of a 32 revolver?
Absolutely not.
IMPROVING ANSWER: It won't even fit, although you can't tell the right ammo to use in a gun by trying it to see if it fits.
A .32 caliber gun fires a bullet that is about 32/100 of an inch wide. A .38 special handgun uses bullets that are about 36/100 inch. So the bigger bullets will not fit through the smaller holes in the chamber and barrel on the smaller-caliber gun.

What type of bullet is recommended for rifles with a tubular magazine?
Until Hornady created the "Leverlution" cartridge, which has a pointed PLASTIC tipped bullet, only flat tipped or round nosed bullets were used in cartridges for a tubular magazine rifle- since the base of each cartridge is resting on the nose of the following cartridge, a spitzer (pointed) bullet could cause the primer of the round ahead of it in the magazine to fire- very bad results.
