yes you can but you need an ac to dc power inverter.

no you can't unless you want a big mess on your hands a house stereo runs off a 110 power supply coming from your house plug.if your thinking of a car amplifier,this runs from a 12 volt battery.now if you buy a new or used house amplifier that can be plugged into the wall.and you have the right stereo that has RCA ins you may be able to do this.
