Can you use IDs with HTML head tags?

I think the answer is probably "no," but I wanted to get the opinion of people who know a lot more than me. Can you use the "id" attribute with HTML elements in the head section, such as title or link? The purpose would be to change their values with JavaScript. Thanks in advance.
