Yes, but realize the grooves in the paneling will show thru.

If the panelling is true wood, there is usually a ridge or grove that can be treated, either by filling the area with drywall mud and then sannding or by covering the entire surface with an under layer of wallpaper.
Your wallpaper retailer will be able to advise you.
There are also textured wallpapers, call glyptic paper that will go over paneling or badly damaged walls and cover the imperfections.
This glyptic paper will need to be painted to finish it off, but is a great way to get from old dark paneling to something new and stylish.

Had wallpaper on the bathroom walls I removed the wall paper now I'm wanting to paint the wall what kind of primer should I use?

You should carefully inspect the wall board for any damage. If the paper "skin" of the wall board has peeled off with the wall paper, you will have to patch that before you can paint. Otherwise, I would recommend a good quality latex primer.
