Yes you can, and no it is not toxic. Cherry pits are just a cherries bigger version of an apple seed. They are digested the same way everything else you swallow is digested. Remember, our stomach acid is strong enough to corrode plastic - of course it is going to be strong enough to digest a cherry stone.

The only reason swallowing cherry pits could potentially harm you is if you are either allergic to them in any way OR you eat excessive amounts of them (excessive being a heck of a lot).
