Can I read 4444 four four or should read them one by one?
 
One thing you can't read 4444 out as is four four, though four fours is possible.

Depending on what the number is, there are different ways in which we can say it, including:

four four four four
four fours
double four double four
four thousand, four hundred and forty four.

I agree with 5jj. In addition, particularly if this were a building number, one could say "forty-four forty-four.
 
That would not be common in BrE. The most common one for us in telephone numbers is double four, double four.
Yes, this is "quadruple four", but for phone numbers we generally don't go past triples. 444 is "triple four".
