Yes, but its better if you don't. Hamsters are awake only at night. If you wake them up during the day, they will sometimes bite, or jump up in a fright. If they are nice hamsters they will not be mad.

It's not recommended to wake hamsters up while they are sleeping as it can be stressful for them. Hamsters are nocturnal animals and are most active during the night, so it's best to allow them to rest undisturbed during the day. If you need to check on your hamster during the daytime, do so quietly and gently without waking them up.

No, you don't. The only reason you should ever if the animal was being bad. Hamsters don't understand that tho, cat can on certain situations, but hamsters do not. and also only qualified animal handlers pick hamsters up to check the sex of the hamster like they did with my hamster
