Why would you want to?

Here's the issue.  Web requests need to end up with files, not
directories.  When a web request arrives for a directory (like
"http://www.website.com/" or "http://www.website.com/folder/"), Apache
rewrites that to refer to "index.html".  (The exact list is in your
Apache configuration files.)  That's where this convention comes from.
