Hi Joan, YES, YOU CAN! There's some posts from Hometalker's that will inspire you and provide instructions as well. Amazing projects!
If you enter "Painting Counters" in the search bar at the top left of the Hometalk homepage, you'll find a bunch of projects posted about just what you're wanting to do.
In the future if I decided to paint a countertop I think I would go with one of the kits they sell now in most box stores. I've heard really good things about them and they come with everything you need to make it last!
