To dry a sweater flat, first, gently reshape it to its original dimensions after washing. Lay it on a clean, dry towel, then roll the towel with the sweater inside to absorb excess water. Unroll the towel and transfer the sweater to a flat, well-ventilated surface, such as a drying rack or another towel, ensuring it is laid out in its natural shape. Avoid hanging the sweater, as this can cause it to stretch.

CAN you? Yes. Will it still be wearable? Maybe not. That's why the label says "Dry clean only". Depending on the material and construction, it is sometimes safe to wash a dry-clean-only sweater as long as you wash it very gently, BY HAND, in cool water. Blot it dry with a towel, and lay it flat on a table. Do not hang it or wring it out; the sweater may be stretched out of shape and ruined. Do this when there are no other options. Really, if the label says "Dry clean", then spend the 3 bucks and have it dry-cleaned.
