If you are talking about the outside yes but if you are talking about the inside it would be difficult to do but it is possiable to do. I don't know how much of a result you would get by doing it. Your best bet if it is cloged on the inside you should take it to a radiator shop and have them rod out the radiator and it will clean it like it was a new radiator.

If it is an aluminum/plastic radiator then you should really let a shop clean the inside so you dont' dammage the fine cooling fins.
