Yes you can. Have you seen this thread about connecting one?

I just put in a LaserTree K30 (30w output ) today and it was pretty straightforward. Spent the afternoon working on dialing it in, its waaaay more powerful and I finally got a test grid that wasn’t charcoal!  
Looking forward to playing with this beast!
