You can but you need to know what is causing the pneumonia.

Next case, get your vet to take a sample swab and send it off to the lab.

Once you know what the bug is then you can vaccinate against the cause of the pneumonia rather than taking a guess and not vaccinating against the right thing and wasting a lot of money.
