I would imagine that every organism can get constipated, but they'd probably just die stuffed with poop; human bodies are far more resilient to disease and problems than other animals, generally speaking (as evidenced by our ability to eat onions, garlic, chocolate, avocados, etc. which would normally kill all sorts of other creatures).
