Can you be conservative and be a Democrat?
Yes, of course you can! Both political parties have conservatives, moderates, and liberals. Democrats just have more liberals and Republicans have more conservatives (either traditional or social). Remember each party must reach out to as many people as possible to get the votes to win so people with different political ideologies belong to these organizations.
A conservative Democrat may support a strong defense, less taxes and spending, and yet support great protections for labor or he may be a social conservative and oppose abortion. Have you heard of the phrase “Blue Dog” Democrats? They are generally southern Democrats.
