Yeah you probably could, but keep in mind the max allowable days on for a domestic category is 9 so you could end up with a stretch of 9. You may also be able to do 4 on 3 off if want. Not every commuter likes that because if you do a stretch of 9 you can minimize your commutes. It all just depends on what guys above you are doing, and you'll get the feel for it after a few months.
