Yes, it's under the GNU Free Documentation License (FDL) so you can do
that provided you also use the GNU FDL for your documentation and
follow the conditions in the GNU FDL.

The conditions are normal things like including the original authors
in your authors list and adding a 'History' section to your manual
saying where the different parts came from.

You'll find the full list at http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html in
section 4.
