Beams are also used as a notational abbreviation to indicate tremolos and reiterations. If used for those purposes, a note, or pair of notes, of any value can be beamed.
When Should notes be beamed?
In music for instruments the usual thing is to beam in such a way that the beat groups are clear. If two eighths are on the same beat then they are beamed together. In 2/2 time, where the beat has the value of 4 eighth notes, you'd beam 4 of them together.
