Why are you doing this? The short answer is "yes", but there can be consequences to doing this if it is in the context of a divorce.

You would send discovery responses to the parent asking them to assert that. You could also send subpoenas to their health care providers.
Getting health information of a party is extremely tricky. I do not recommend that you try this without counsel.

Why not do a grandparent power of attorney instead? It's through the juvenile court and gives power to act as guardian over the minor child without actually doing guardianship proceedings. It also is extremely easy to undo.
