Yes, because a bad question is a bad question. You cannot tell them not to answer though.
Being a transactional attorney whose worst class in law school was evidence im going with "yes the can object"

Why would it not be permissible? Could you object to a question if the witness were on the stand? YES Then you can object to a question in a depo. As previously mentioned you cannot tell them not to answer though.

Objections shall be made to the person taking the deposition, if not made are waived.

With respect to rules regarding objections during depositions make sure to check your local rules --- this type of stuff is largely governed under local rules rather than FRCP.
That said, this seems permissible in most districts I am familiar with
