Accents

I was wondering if an actor/actress can talk with a different accent when he/she normally has a different accent. I don't mean in movies/shows, I mean in real life. Can they use a different accent in real life?

So yeah I guess the title is kind of self-explanatory, but to give context, here is why I know my chances are so low that it's almost impossible: so I'm 17, and have been in some school plays, not many to be honest, just two, but damn if i didn't like it and...
