Good question! Not being part of the programming team, I'm only assuming it can, but we've never tried it.
Speaking for the mechanical aspect, it SHOULD be possible as everything is encoded properly to allow us feedback (drive wheels/arm extension/etc...)
There may be some slight nuances about the overall design that may limit it as I'm picturing it working in reverse.

I can have a more definitive answer after our next meeting (if I remember!)
