Sure, unless you're covered by a contract of employment or
collective bargaining type of agreement which would
prohibit such action by your employer. (Virginia is an
employment at will jurisidiction where employees can
be suspended and/or terminated for almost any reason
that doesn't violate federal anti-discrimination laws.)
