Yes you can: You can wear them for a while to see if you can stretch them out that way or else take them to a cobbler who has special tools for stretching shoes out.

Yes: Yes, you can have them stretched but that does not mean that they will become comfortable since you are saying that it is your leg that hurts and not your foot.
