You can, but there's probably a better way.

Mixing position and flex could get pretty confusing, I'd bet that you can accomplish your goal a better way. Since you're already using flex, I would expect perhaps some padding or margin would do, or maybe even a different setting on one of the flex properties.

If you'd like more specific help, show your code or even better, make a snapshot of your workspace and post the link to it here.
