No you can't.
But you can fit them easily in the trunk and backseat like Mineral said.

Edit: Wait, I missed the whole "tires on them" part. You might be lucky to get one of them in depending on tire size. I was able to get one in the other day - 275/35-18 Hoosier racing slick on an 18x9 - but 3 more had to go in the cabin. On the other hand, my 295/35-18 will not fit. The problem is the clearance area getting them in. I gutted my trunk and, suprisingly, there is a lot of room back there even with a large water-meth tank and pump mounted. 2 wheels by themselves might fit depending on size, but with tires mounted, no go. Just one.

My 18's with 275/40's on them only fit 2 in the trunk, then had to pop the back seat down with some blankets and ride slow so they didnt slide forward and hit my front seats.

My advice: Find a friend with a truck and bring 2-3 blankets to haul them or just haul them 2 at a time.
