Is possible to edit the bootstrap.css file for license accordions?

I mean, I need to edit the general style, and I don't want to use one more css file.

Can I edit the original by hand?

If I understand your question correctly, you are asking if you're free to modify Bootstrap and use it. The answer is: yes of course!

PS. Bootstrap is licensed under the MIT license.

I'm sure you can. Open the file with a text editor and press some keys... TA-DAAH! File edited.

If your question actually is if that's a good practice in order to customize the framework, my answer is no. There's a customization tool to manage with the basic layout. For any further customization, write your own stylesheet and overwrite Bootstrap rules.
Why? Because in the future you will need a native component as it was, or you will want to update to the last version of the framework.

If your question is about licenses, as @spinningarrow answered, yes. You are free to edit at will.

Unfortunately @spinningarrow's comment is incorrect. Bootstrap is actually licensed under the Apache License Version 2 (APLv2). The license can be seen here: https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/blob/master/LICENSE
