No, communism is a political system that normally has the economic system of planned economy, thus when you see a comparison between capitalism vs communism it is an apples to oranges comparison.
Under Soviet communism you couldn’t do what you propose but definitely under current Chinese communism.

The Chinese system is not communist, it began the transition to state capitalism decades ago.[1][2][3] [1] https://www.businessinsider.com/how-china-went-from-communist-to-capitalist-2015-10?op=1 https://www.businessinsider.com/how-china-went-from-communis...

- tored 5y agoThat is a question of definition I guess, the state is controlled by a single party, the communist party and intertwined with the military, typical for communist system. But regardless how you want to define China, it yet proves that capitalism by itself does not guarantee any freedoms at all. There are other asian examples of this, like Singapore, Taiwan & South Korea.
