Yes you can. But just as is true with posting and editing, sometimes a deletion will fail to federate to all instances. No federation action is guaranteed, but rather best effort.
Sorry, you can't delete your comment if they choose to disallow that. That's common on lemmy. That's why you'll get downvotes on poorly written comments you give up on and delete.
Please show me a single case where that actually happened.
