Well, if your thinking of a "clutch" like a manual transmission would use, theoretically, you probably could, but i see no point. Having a torque converter on an auto works in your favor, you get torque multiplication. Where did you see someone putting a clutch in an auto tranny? Are you maybe confusing it with the ability to shift an auto tranny using a manual valve body?

no i know about the manual valve body's i was just just wondering howthe clutch in a auto setup worked? there was a place here in dallas in the late 70's early 80's called hotrod exchange, my dad was telling me about it and a truck that was a auto but it had a clutch. and just wondering how it worked thought it sounded different and cool?

I honestly see no need, you'd have to keep slipping the clutch to get the vehicle moving.
