Yes you can. It begins to depend on what sort of music you're using and how you get it into Maya but it's certainly possible (I'm assuming you want an After Effects / Sound keys equivalent for Maya). I suspect it would be easier to pull off in After Effects and render separate layers in Maya to get the animation you're wanting, however.
I typed the following into Google and found these links:
