Depending on the software you are using, the answer is probably yes you can. But my question is why would you want that done right away? I would make sure that each photo is okay and even backed up before deleting them off the memory card. Things can happen during the transfer that could corrupt a file, and then you would not be able to recover it unless you have disk recovery software.
