You could, but there would be no need for it (full clothing provides complete barriers from anything your body fluids or skin could do), and it might wind up tearing in the process.

We recommend people keep condoms and all other barriers places with moderate temperatures, and store them only in places they won't get too knocked around or sat upon. You can keep a condom in your wallet if you're going out for the evening and think you might need it, but you don't want to store one there full-time.

If you haven't read it yet, this article is a really good guide on how to take care of and use condoms and other barrier methods: All the Barriers! All the Time!
