Theoretically, you can if you have regulators installed.
I have regulators on my heat radiators. They can open or close hot water flow inside. Chief engineer of the house said "don't touch them as they are not guaranteed to work" :) but anyway I could change to the new ones which will work, if I wanted to.
But I have no intention to do it because, first, the water temperature is regulated by the automatics for the whole house according to the temperature outside. It's almost never too hot (for me). And second, everybody pays fixed price for heating so it's wiser to open the window and get more fresh air if it is hotter than desired.
It is a very centralized system, anyway. All houses get this overheated water (or even steam) directly from electric power stations through underground pipes. The whole system turns on around the first of October and turns off around the first of May.
