Yes, as long as you don't bleed the system dry (by dry I mean letting all the old fluid out, then putting in new fluid). That will allow air to get into your ABS system which will require a more costly bleed by an authority. Keep fluid in the system at all times and you won't have to worry about air in the ABS system.

Some use the old fashioned 2 person bleed, some use a bleeder like a Motive. Some use the Motive dry to put pressure in the system and add fluid to the reservoir as needed while others put fluid in the bleeder and the pressure feeds the reservoir. Either way works, I do the latter.
