Answers:
Yes you can actually. From Wikipedia:"All Australian citizens and permanent residents of Australia and their families are eligible for a "Medicare Card", except for those residents on Norfolk Island or those who are not deemed to be residing in Australia."
So, if you're not living on Norfolk Island, I'd check with your local Medicare office.
