Just because its wired doesn't mean its ready for the hopper. The dish needs to be correctly pointed at your satellites and it needs the correct switches/node.
If you get passed the technical part of your situation then I believe you can.
You can take the receiver BUT DO NOT LEAVE IT THERE when you return home, this is account stacking and its not permitted and you will be harassed by Dish Network's audit team.
I'll let someone else give you the technical dish details since I'm in Puerto Rico and the Dish setups in the CONUS are different.
