Sure he could. Lincoln invoked the Insurrection Act, suspended Habeus Corpus, and a lot of other shit. A judge ruled against him. Lincoln had him imprisoned. He also arrested politicians, newspaper editors, installed a military dictator in Indiana, and militarily occupied Maryland for the duration of the war.
