Can I drill into my cinderblocks exterior wall in my basement (2025 Update)

I am trying to insulate my basement walls. They are cinderblock and I have had no leaking or moisture issues. My question is can I drill into the cinderblock to hang the framing wood so I can hang drywall or will this cause problems drilling to cinderblocks. I am using insulation foam then 1x4 over the foam boards so I can then attach the drywall to the board. What screws/nails do I use?
