Un, no we can't. Toph isn't an Empath of any kind. She can tell someone is lying by hearing their elevated heartbeat, because when most people lie, their heartbeat is elevated. Few people can control their heartbeat when they lie, i.e. Azusa, Toph could never tell when Azula was lying. If Toph were any kind of Empath, she'd be able to tell if Azula was lying at any point.
