Yes you can. However, Soccer studs are shorter beneath the sole of the boot than the regulation Rugby ones ( that is not an issue from a regulation perspective) and it does mean that grip is reduced. You would need to make sure that you have the type off boots that have screw in studs and replace them with the longer version - Normally the heel studs are the regulation length so you need to buy all heels studs. To check on stud regulation you can access the IRB site and search for boot regulations - there is a load of good info there to help you with rugby and the proceures and laws.

Do all rugby players need boots?
yes because it reduces the chance of a twisted ankle. - The game has a clear guideline on footwear. Rugby boots rarely cover over the ankle anymore. Players in the main wear a "boot" cut below the ankle and containing 6 to 8 removable studs for grip. In the 1970 and early 80's rugby boots were cut to cover the ankle but their also presented some restrictions to when laced up. Now rugby boots re similar to soccer boots. Boots without stud grip are not really the best thing to wear as scrummaging, mauling and directional changes cause slipping particularly in wet weather.

Though rugby is easiest to play in boots specifically made for rugby, they are not necessary. Soccer cleats work just fine. The only requirement for rugby boots is that they must not have a spike on the bottom of the toes.
