can I omit the "d,b,g" sounds in a sentence?

The six stop consonants are t, d, p, b, k, and g. When these meet in between two words.

I wonder can I omit the "d,b,g" sound when it is followed by these consonant " t, d, p, b, k, and g".

for example:Dad kicks my ass. Can I say it like "dæ'kiks my ass" with "d" sounds omitted .

further more. Can I omit "d,b,g" sound when it is followed by other consonant. for example:Dad loves my mom.

Can I say it like "dæ'lʌvs" with "d" sound omitted.
