You can. But first the dealer needs to file the paperwork with the IRS.
You need to go back to the dealer and get them to fill out the proper forms for the sale and submit them. The VIN for the vehicle has to be entered on the tax return and has to match the VIN on the form the dealer submits. Once they have you'll be able to apply for the credit.
