You absolutely can and should.

Entry level, probably will get denied.

But if you're applying to management or significant roles that are typically hired slow, you absolutely should ask to talk with other employees.

Yeah, but you can be sure that anyone who tells you the truth about a bad working environment will be fired shortly thereafter for "attendance issues" or any number of other bogus reasons.

I've been the person to talk to interviewees before. I told them the good and the bad. We feel it's better to be upfront and let them make an informed choice rather than hiring them only to have them quit in a year or two.
