You can if My_Package is a generic package. However ...

Packages are a basic concept in Ada, and this question shows such a
level of misunderstanding of packages that it seems unlikely any answer
will be meaningful to you until you gain a better grasp of the language.

You might want to look at www.adapower.com, where you'll find language
tutorials and lots of examples. If you still have a question after
working through a tutorial and reviewing some examples, then we will
probably be able to help you.
