you can... have fun.... send pictures - cos the pressure coming out is about 150 PSI and might just blow your teeth into the back of your skull, but if needed, you CAN (in small bursts) breath directly from the tank. at depth burst air into the cup of your hand and breath indirectly off of that. but it is SOOO much easier and more fun to Scuba if you have a regulator on the tank to bring the pressure down to Ambient pressure which is constantly changing by depth.

A standard compressor can pressurize to around 300 psi.

A paintball tank is much greater, being 3000 to 4500 psi.
