I've completed my B.Com and now I'm almost through my B.Ed. I am quite interested in psychology. Can I opt for an M.A in psychology now?

I am really interested in appearing for the National Eligibility Test in psychology and later pursuing a PhD in the same field. The eligibility criteria for both is a master's in the same field. Hence, I want to know if I can opt for it. P.S: I really love teaching and I want to teach psychology.
