Yes, they can....they just can't auto dial them. Most of the larger polling companines do call a small number of cell customers to get a feel for where they may be voting(kind of a poll within a poll) then assign that number to represent the percentage(7.9%+/-) of registered voters who only use cell phones.

The Pew research center has a study on the whole thing but I don't have a link.
