I can - my tutor for 3 years was Canadian so I have learned to tell the difference. Obviously cos we're not faced with both daily it's difficult to decipher. Same with a NZ accent, depending on which half of the island they live on it sounds either Australian, British, or American.

If you hear them all often enough it's easier to be able to tell the difference.
