Brief Answer:
Yes, you can but investigate cough if persistent

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to HCM and thanks for your query.
There is no harm in taking lemon if it gives you relief. Was your cough investigated? If it is a dry cough mainly at night and it makes you want to clear your throat often, it may be related to one of your medicines.
Take care
