Yes you can:

What type of guide are you looking for? Are you looking for guided tour packages or a personal tour guide? If you are just looking for a tour guide book, AAA is a good place to get one. Also, you can go to www.jnto.com and get all the info you need.

I agree with the suggestion of using the japan-guide site. Very helpful.

In addition I used both the LP Guide:
http://shop.lonelyplanet.com/Primary/Product/Destination_Guides/Country/Asia/PRD_PRD_2022/Japan+Travel+Guide.jsp?bmUID=1205341039590

and the Eyewitness Guide:
http://www.worldofmaps.com/showitem.cfm?ccd=eyewitness_guides&pcd=japan_eyewitness_guide&isbn=9780756628765

Got both of them on the amazon.uk site - worth comparing prices.

But the internet really was much more useful!

The only book that I would absolutely recommend is the Exploring Kyoto book for self-guided walking tours around the city. Just marvelous:

Also purchased from amazon.uk
http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss_w_h_/202-3972801-0400645?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Exploring+Kyoto&Go.x=8&Go.y=10&Go=Go

BTW - all of this info is available via google.
