If I understand your question correctly, yes and its easy to do, there is a simple trick to it.

If you drive the left motor with P1_y and the right motor with P1_x

then all you need to do is turn your joystick 45° on the control panel. (the whole joystick unit, so instead of being oriented like a square, its looks like a diamond)

then, what use to be the upper right corner of the joystick travel will become straight ahead (both motors on full) and what use to be the lower left corner becomes full astern.

the only drawback is the handle on the joystick is rotated, so the buttons are awkward to use.
