Yes you can. From what I understand, all the VPS's are unmanaged VM's,
so it is 100% up to you what you want to do with it.

Take a look at the following URL which lists the VPS packages. The
smallest package ($2.50/month) gives you 20GB of hard drive space - I
assume you will have to deduct a few GB's for the OS install itself, but
that should still leave plenty of space available. The next package up
($5/month) includes 25GB have harddrive space. With each additional
package the storage gets more.

They also include an option for you to purchase additional storage, no
matter the package you choose.
