Yes it is, but it is impossible for two blue eyed parents to have a brown eyed child

Yes, genetically you can to go back several generations. If you and your partner both have brown eyes, and three grand parents have brown eyes but one has blue, then there is a one in four chance of the child having blue eyes, go back further and the chances get less.

Most babies of white parants are born with blue eyes which will change by the age of 3 months.
