Sure you can, but the long term results are not likely to be good. 😀

Sorry but no.
You might apply 50% above rated voltage on a *film* capacitor and get away with it, they are routinely tested at 2X rated voltage; maybe (that's iffy) you could do that in a ceramic, but no standard electrolytic has that much extra voltage tolerance.
At best, life will be measured in minutes or hours, not even days.
There's no real film layer in them, but a chemically created "crust" and it's quite tightly specified.
