If it is quiet, yes you can. Some fuel pumps are louder than others. Get down by the gas tank and have someone turn the key.

It turns off after a few seconds, if your turning it on and off listening before pressure falls back down and you did not hear it the first time it may be a while before you hear it again. You can do a fuel pressure check/test though.
