Any intact male "can" breed with a female; the question is really "should" this male be breed to this female.
But truly I think the first question is should "I" be breeding at all.
Here is a sticky about breeding:

The history of what the female's mother, grandmother etc, is one which helps to clarify what "might" be the size of this particular litter.
The sire's history is also important, vs a vs what size of puppies for this litter.
The structure of your female is important too, and your vet is the person to talk to about this.
