Actually, no, you won't be able to. Mars never appears that big, and it has already passed as close to Earth as it will for quite a while. There's a thread about it on the board somewhere, and I'm sure that it's mentioned on the main site, but I'm afraid that I just can't find the references.

Added: Here's the thread.
