Sure can.....

NFHS Rule 1-5-3/4
The catcher must wear a head protector, shin guards, body protector, protective cup and a mask with a throat protector. Rule 1-5-3

The throat protector, which is either part of or attached to the mask, must adequately protect him.
Rule 1-5-4

Also

The helmet must have full ear protection (dual ear flaps)

Also

The catchers helmet must bear the NOCSAE seal of approval. Hockey style masks that meet the NOCSAE standards are legal. A skull cap helmet-mask combination is ILLEGAL because it has no protection for the ears....

Your catcher will have to wait until College ball to wear the skull and mask.....
