Yes you can, but that hose is there to keep any fuel spray that could come out of that cap from getting near the rider. Some bikes have a short hose on top of the cap with a little one way valve or breather thingy. it vents the tank but its supposed to keep gas from coming out.

You can also use a simple hose that is routed into the steering stem nut, if it's hollow.
