It is but it really isn't recommended. The best you could do is SQL Express (otherwise it would be copyright violation) and even then you should let the user decide.
SQL server is a multiuser DB, so it is quite likely that it will be installed on a different computer to the one your app will be installed on. If so, then you should attempt to use that instance instead: Give the user a link to the MS install for SQL Express instead and let them decide what to do.
