It's allowed, yes. Once in a great while I'll see a decent floorperson at Foxwoods ask if there's suspicision of collusion and not allow it. But most dealers will just show the hand if asked.
Personally, if you really need to ask to see a hand for "information" then you're not very observant.
At a showdown, if you think you have the winning hand, just show your hand even if the other person is supposed to show first. No need to slow down the game by semi-grandstanding.
