Can you yes. Should you...well that's debatable. You stock springs won't last long with the added lift, and the benefit from going to 1.6 from 1.5 is marginal if you are not going full roller. Lot's of threads out there on what springs you can run and recommended rockers.

I guess that's important to a Chinese spammer, embedding malicious links in posts.

Bye.

Been a while since I visited this issue but be aware your stock rockers may be 'self-aligning' and the aftermarkets are not. They require pushrod guide plates and that requires hardend pushrods.
