Hi
You Can,
Please see below.
You can use the mdix auto interface configuration command in the CLI to
enable the automatic medium-dependent interface crossover (Auto-MDIX)
feature. When the Auto-MDIX feature is enabled, the switch detects the
required cable type for copper Ethernet connections and configures the
interfaces accordingly. Therefore, you can use either a crossover or a
straight-through cable for connections to a copper 10/100, 10/100/1000, or
1000BASE-T SFP module port on the switch, regardless of the type of device
on the other end of the connection.

The Auto-MDIX feature is enabled by default on switches running Cisco IOS
Release 12.2(18)SE or later. For releases between Cisco IOS Release
12.1(14)EA1 and 12.2(18)SE, the Auto-MDIX feature is disabled by default.
For configuration information for this feature, see the switch software
configuration guide or the switch command reference.

Regards

Chris
