Yes you can! Although we don't sell pumice, it is a common product in garden or feed stores across the country.
You certainly can use it at the bottom of pots with drainage holes, but its effect would be redundant. In pots without drainage holes, pumice absorbs some excess water out of the soil. Putting pumice at the bottom of the pot pulls that moisture away from the roots. A drainage hole does the same job but better, as it allows the excess moisture to fully leave the soil.
