No, you cannot.

(A "security scanner" is a one-and-done proposition because it's deterministic and is going to find what it finds the first time you run and nothing more. But a software security assessment project you run every year on the same target with different teams will turn up different stuff every year. I'm at pains to remind people how totally lame source code security scanners are. People keep saying "static analyzers already do this" and like, nobody in security takes those tools seriously.)
