No, you can't. The robots are placed on the field before the vision tetras are placed. Once the robots have been placed, you will not be able to communicate with them until the end of the autonomous period. So there is no (legal) way to send a signal to the robot after the vision tetras are placed and before the start of the match to tell the robot the locations of the vision tetras.
