Yes, you can, but I never tried.
Just look at the canvas widget... from unix platform, type man n widget and you will get the help.
Here is a brief part of canvas man page.

BITMAP ITEMS
Items of type bitmap appear on the display as images with two colors,
foreground and background. Bitmaps are created with widget commands of
the following form:
pathName create bitmap x y ?option value option value ...?
The arguments x and y specify the coordinates of a point used to posi
tion the bitmap on the display (see the -anchor option below for more
information on how bitmaps are displayed). After the coordinates there
may be any number of option-value pairs, each of which sets one of the
configuration options for the item. These same option-value pairs may
be used in itemconfigure widget commands to change the item's configura
tion.
