Yep, you sure can. All you need is some sort of a container that is just slightly smaller in diameter than the width of a cover slip. Actually a test tube will work. You can also make your own flotation solution, but it's kind of hard to get the specific gravity just right so that fecal solids won't float but parasite ova will.
