No, you can't. The cable that is supplied with the car is just for 120v.

If you haven't already, read this thread in its entirety. There is a ton of good information there. Personally, I installed a Chargepoint Flex charger. It can go up to 40 amp with my install. We are planning to get a full EV as the other car next year so this charger will work for both cars, although not at the same time. It works great with the 45e. The 45e draws 16 amps from it and recharges in about 5 hours.
