If you already have a custom recovery, then yes. You can. Usually, when you get out from the recovery, and you are not rooted, it will ask you to root. You select yes and it will root for you
It you are running custom recovery, I think it will be a bit harder.
Anyway, this thread had to be moved to Q&A.

The best answer to my questions was provided by BCSC, THANKS! Worked great!
Follow these steps exactly and you will have the latest Recovery running. You do not need a PC for this method.
1) Download correct Clockworkmod ot TWRP (touch or regular as you wish) for your device
2) Rename it to recovery.IMG and place it at the root of your internal sdcard
3) Download and install terminal emulator from the Play Store
4) Run the terminal and
type: su (press enter)
Then type: dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 (press enter)
Be sure that you have typed the above code correctly. You will not see a confirmation. It is done almost instantly.
5) Reboot into recovery and enjoy

This won't work since su command won't run successfully coz there is no supersu app.
