I am not sure if you mean "addressing me" or "calling for me", but I will include both in my answer. Any of these could be used depending on what you meant:
1. You can't / may not use my full name when addressing me.
2. You can't / may not use my full name when calling for me.
3. You don't have to use my full name when addressing me.
4. You don't have to use my full name when calling for me.
5. You may shorten my name when addressing / calling for me.
6. You may use my first name when addressing / calling for me.
7. You may use my nickname when addressing / calling for me.

No, that sentence is grammatically incorrect. You could say, "You don't have to call me by my full name."
