Yes you can. For a few dollars at Radio Shack, you can buy an "RCA Jack (red and white) to headphone jack" adaptor. Plug the red and white jacks into the "audio out" jack on your television, and plug your headphones into the other end of the jack. If your television has "variable audio out," this means that when you adjust the volume on your tv, you are also adjusting the volume level coming through the "audio out" jack. If it's "fixed audio out," you'll probably need a headphone amp with it's own volume amplification and control.
