Well you must first ask what sport and you would assume this is referring to Hockey.

So with hockey in mind you have two distinct differences NHL versus USA hockey rules. Ant the simplest answer is NO you can't check a goalie in or out of the crease. But for a more defined answer from both rule books see below.

USA HOCKEY RULE...

Rule 606 Charging

(b) A minor or a major penalty shall be imposed on a player who

body checks or charges a goalkeeper while the goalkeeper is

within his goal crease or privileged area.

A goalkeeper is NOT "fair game" just because he is

outside his privileged area. A penalty for interference or

charging should be called in every case where an opposing

player makes unnecessary contact with a goalkeeper.

NHL RULE...

69.2 Penalty - In all cases in which an attacking player initiates intentional

or deliberate contact with a goalkeeper, whether or not the goalkeeper

is inside or outside the goal crease, and whether or not a goal is

scored, the attacking player will receive a penalty (minor or major, as

the Referee deems appropriate). In all cases where the infraction

being imposed is to the attacking player for hindering the goalkeeper's

ability to move freely in his goal crease, the penalty to be assessed is

for goalkeeper interference.

In exercising his judgment, the Referee should give more significant consideration to the degree and nature of the contact with

the goalkeeper than to the exact location of the goalkeeper at the time

of the contact.

No.

Although some coincidental and incidental contact does takes place on

occasion, it is at the officials' discretion whether it is a penalty for

goaltender interference and/or roughing.

Yes but the player can't body check them back and it would be stupid because then the other team would have open net because most goalies aren't the best skating and keeping balance with all there equipment on. So you can but it would be stupid.
