You sure can, it may cost several thousand for the install and more than a few hundred per month though.

Probably best to wait for the residential rollout

The Business Fibre area on the  Chorus map is where we can deliver Point-to-Point Symmetrical Business grade services today.

As previous poster has pointed out this comes at a premium price.  When UFB deployment rolls through your area we will be installing GPON equipment which supports the lower cost UFB connections that you might be looking for.
