You can and may.  I was going for galumphing, rollicking, with a dash of larruping - fairly consistent within each stanza but varying as if a storyteller were changing stance, expression, or tone with each.
I'd say you're roughly achieving that. I do think it would sound more polished if the meter was consistent, but it's still enjoyable. The rhymes are whimsical and unashamed in being a little bit over the top (without being garish). I think it's a good bit of fun, and I learned something.
