Your question lacks detail, so it's not clear exactly what it is you are askng. If you are asking whether you can record an oral or verbal (i.e. nonwritten) lease agreement, then in your state, you can do so if all the parties to the converations (e.g. the landlord and all tenants, as well as anyone else participating in the conversation) agrees or consents; you need the agreement of everyone to record.
Or if you are asking whether you can record your lease like title to a home is recorded, the answer is no--leases are not recorded that way.
If you are asking something else, you should re-post your question with additional detail.
