if it is your machine, the answer is "yes, of course you can"

if you mean that you are wanting to run eggdrop on a linux machine on which you have only a web hosting account, the answer is "most web hosters have IRC blocked, you have to ask them about that"

If you use Linux you can run eggdrop or on Windows a 'Windrop', you do not necessarily have to have a shell account.
