Yes, if you add it externally and regulate the voltage to 5V and if it can deliver the current. POE is not built into the BBB so you must apply power via the 5VDC port. You can find injector boards at several different places
There may be a cape for this, but I am not aware of one. Adding it externally is a lot simpler.
