Yes you can. The worms are excreted in the stool of the animal.
Here is a site on hookworms. Scroll to the bottom to see how it affects humans and how it's transmitted.

Hookworms can cause a skin disease in humans called cutaneous larval migrans. Hookworm larvae can penetrate the surface of a person's skin (usually through bare feet) and migrate through it, causing a disease called 'cutaneous larva migrans' or 'creeping eruption.' The lesions appear as red lines under the skin and sometimes break open at the skin's surface. These lesions cause severe itching. Usually, the larvae will die in several weeks and the condition will disappear. In severe cases, the larvae may make their way through the skin and enter deeper tissues. This may cause lung disease and painful muscles.
There have been some reports of humans having intestinal infections with canine hookworms.Generally, these infected people do not show clinical signs of disease

an similar reason some races imagine they're more effective acceptable than others, at the same time as truly they have in straightforward words had more effective acceptable possibilities to subjugate and take income of them. Whales and dolphins actually have more effective intelligence as well as language, yet they're non violent and empathetic as hostile to the human beings with skill. Elephants also are truly sensible with language.so a options as evolutionary dominance, the cockroach has been around the longest.
