Yes you can. You could organize certain aspects/fields of the economy differently, injecting communist ideas into otherwise capitalist countries. So a country where everything is subject to a “free”, capitalist market could be calles less communist than a country, where for example the development and maintenance of public infrastructure is organized and funded by a government, be it democratic or authoritarian.
The stance that there is only pure capitalism or pure communism is propaganda used by both sides in order to prevent reforms.
injecting communist ideas into otherwise capitalist countries.
No, you can’t. What you are describing is merely using faux-leftist ideas to protect capitalism from itself by throwing more scraps at the working class - that is all.

“Reform” is how capitalists protect their power and privilege from working-class revolt. “Reform” is always used to protect the status quo from desperately needed radical change. “Reform” almost never infringes upon the power and privilege of capitalist elites. “Reform” is a vital tool in the wealthy’s arsenal when it comes to class warfare.
“Reform” is not change - it is used to prevent change.
To be honest, they are more communist than capitalist countries.
Maybe, but are they more communist than they are capitalist?
You can’t be “more communist-er” than something - you either are or you aren’t.
