Of course you can, if the hypnotist tells you to. If you can do that without direction then you are not hypnotised.
The fact is that this myth - which has grown from unsuccessful hypnosis replacing the real thing - wouldn't have been much use to the early hypnotists like James Braid who performed several thousand operations using hypnosis as the anaesthetic. Just imagine someone being able to walk away half way through an appendectomy. Messy.
