You can, but it's uncommon.
There are no rules against the number of sweepers who can sweep a rock at any given time, so in some cases when a rock really needs sweeping it's possible that all four players on the team will be sweeping it. There are a couple of reasons why it's not entirely practical, though. It's hard to maneuver all of those brooms and bodies in front of a rock while staying close enough for the sweeping to be effective, and the shooter's job is really to keep a close view from behind of the shot's line and weight in order to call the sweepers on or off.

What is the equipment called for curling?
"Curling shoes," one with a slippery Teflon slider built into the sole and the other with just grippy rubber on the bottom, are used to allow players to slide smoothly down the ice during their delivery (sliding) of the curling rock. "Curling brooms" or "curling brushes" are used to "sweep" the ice in front of the rock, decreasing the friction between the rock and the ice and making the rock go both farther, and curl (curve) less if so desired. Brooms are also used by most players during their delivery for balance. Many teams will use stop watches to time a rock between certain points on the ice, to get an idea of how fast the rock is moving.
