Yes/no.
I accidentally burnt some connector by installing bulbs that were 70+. Don't do it IMO.
Even though probably nothing will happen.

The factory wiring is really only the correct guage to handle the voltage that the light are using. Along with the fuses. I wouldnt go with a higher wattage lites. I have silverstars and they do a great job of light the road. Tried HID's low were great hi beams sucked. Went back to silverstars!

I've had pilot 8000k HID's with no high beams for about a year you gotta pay to play that's how I look at it. 75w is obviously brighter than 65, but has a higher draw which could potentially burn out wires like wardzach said. 65 is a pretty decent bulb there's really no reason to go higher. just get silverstars or something they're great.
Friend melted the wiring in his civic by going to a higher wattage....but it is a honda lol
