In the United Kingdom, yes, because the Disability Discrimination Act. Prevents them from refusing you. However most people with Asperger's have social interaction and communication difficulties it would make doing their job hard, as you need to talk to people and open up.

In the United States they can refuse you if you are deemed 'mentally unsuitable', which they probably will.

I have Asperger's and had meetings with a specialist who taught me to talk and be confident.
