Hi,

Out of the box, no. The shifters (I'm assuming you're talking mechanical here) will only have 11 clicks in them. Therefore, it will be impossible to change between all 12 sprockets.
Furthermore, as there are more jumps on 12 speed, the cable pull ratios will be different, and the gears won't change properly with 11 speed levers.

You can often find people converting 10 speed levers to 11 speed on eBay, but these are third party, and as 12 speed is relatively new, I'd be very surprised if anyone has managed to convert a set of 11 speed shifters to 12 speed.

Are you trying to use the 11 speed cassette as well? The only 12sp part being the derailleur itself?
