Does this mean we can do it?

2 Kings 2:23
Then he went up from there to Bethel; and as he was going up by the way, young lads came out from the city and mocked him and said to him, "Go up, you baldhead; go up, you baldhead!" 24When he looked behind him and saw them, he cursed them in the name of the LORD. Then two female bears came out of the woods and tore up forty-two lads of their number.

No, we are not prophets of the Lord, merely His followers.
We shouldn't WANT to curse anyone to begin with. We are all wretched sinners.

Cursing people is part of the old covenant that God would bless the people that bless you and curse the people who would curse you right here on earth now! However, we have a new covenant with God and it teaches us to endure persecution rather than seek to counterstrike it.

bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. -Luke 6:28

Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. -Romans 12:14

We work hard with our own hands. When we are cursed, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it -1 Corinthians 4:12

Depends on what the 'cursee' believes. Careful though, curses have been known to backfire and return to the one who originated it.

I would leave the cursing to God. I'm told to love my neighbor. Even more if he doesn't love me. If he steals from me, I'm to give him more. I ask for forgivness when I curse my neighbor. Thats what it says to do in the Bible.

The Bible has curses as well as blessings. Read Psalm 109 and see what you think it is.
