You possibly can do it, but it would probably be a hell of a time to 
position things correctly:
ul {
        list-style:square;
        margin-left: xxem /* indent list items for edge of box */;
        padding-left: 15px /* size of image*/
li {
        background url(image.gif);
        padding-left: xx px /* adapt to image */
        margin-left: -15px /* matching padding-left on the ul */
}

Then use a non-transparent image; maybe it will cover up the 
list-marker.

Untested.
