Yes, you can do this.  It is especially helpful for "info signs" that might have a map, or information on wildlife or specific dangers at the park (toxic plants, poisonous snakes, steep cliffs, slippery rocks...).  You can tag this with tourism=information, information=board.  There is also information=guidepost, information=map and information=route_marker; please see https://wiki.osm.org/wiki/Tag:tourism%3Dinformation .

Perhaps 80hnhtv4agou takes a look at our wiki for leisure=park (messy as it has been) and how the tags all glom together: tagging leisure=park and name=Fred's Park will cause our "current" Standard renderer (Carto) to display this with a minty-green and slightly-italicized typeface font to be selected to display these attributes (named park) together.
