Yes, it is allowed, but jurists include it as one of the makruh things to do when with spouse. Some jurists also said that this is specific to the man. He can still have a top on, or cover himself with something. 

One view is that this at a time that the intention to copulate is for conceiving a child, where all mustahab and makruh things should be observed, as angels could attend, and out of shyness to the angels. This view is based on a hadith from Imam al-Sadiq (a.s.), from the Prophet (s.a.w.).
