Yes you can! The IBM IAM service allows you to create a ServiceID, which is a machine-usable 'persona'. Then you can create an API key for it and give it permissions to access one or more IBM services, like Cloudant.
Start at https://cloud.ibm.com/iam and then:
Now you can use the API key in your application and you should be able to access your service.
Individual IBM services normally offer their own access mechanisms. But the advantage of this method is that you can use the same API key to access multiple services (e.g. Cloudant, Cloud Object Storage) from your application.
