"can" you?
YES

will you?
MAYBE, that will depend on the employers policies, and whether your lying was substantive or just an oversight...


EDIT:
just to clarify many states are NOT "right-to-work" states and if they were it would be irrelevant... r-t-w has to do with union representation and non union workers in union shops....

"at-will" employment has to do with reasons for separation and that fact that a reason is not required..........
all states practice "at-will" employment, in 49 states it is assumed that all employment is at-will unless otherwise stated, in Montana it is NOT assumed but is applicable if the policy is clearly stated.

Yes, if your application has a signature line and there was anything about being truthful and correct you would be fired, you committed fraud to get the job.

When you are employed, you start an employee-employer contract. If part of the contract requires to to disclose all of your employment history before commencing work, failure to disclose previous employment history leads to a fallacy in the original premise and may void the contract.

Whether your employer bothers to take action/cares about it enough to fire you is a different matter, but it does provide him/her with grounds to.

You can get fired for falsifying your resume - so yes - especially if it's recent employment history.
An employer may not care about employment from 20 years ago.

Depending on where you live. You can be fired for the fun of firing someone. Most States are right to work States.
