no you can not bro.

the turn signal bulbs get hot while they are one... now.. if their just used at a blinker... they dont get that hot during the day.. but at night.. they are on with your head lights.. so they will heat up.. and melt the chrome.. or worse.. the bulb could explode.. and start to burn/ melt your headlight...

(experiment)
- spray paint.. or spray chrome on a house hold light bulb. place it in a old lamp... turn it on.. watch what happens..
Note- that will take a few minutes to heat up.
