Yes, you can, only when you install an extra plug-in.

Adobe Photoshop doesn’t support importing HEIC images, you have to install 3rd party plugin to read. As you can check, I dragged n dropped a HEIC image to my Photoshop, it asked me to install a non-Adobe software to open this kind of file.

I clicked on Learn More and found such a plug-in even needs a payment:
