Sure you can. Shut off whatever telecrack they are obsessed with at the moment, leave them to bawl their eyes out in a playpen and come back when they have learned their lesson.
I found that yelling was a great tool if you use it very sparingly. I rarely yell at any of the kids in my life, but you bet they listen when I do. I noticed kids ignore adults who yell all the time. There is no urgency to it if it is the norm.
