Yes you can. Just be careful when you put it in.

If you have not removed your front cover, and just the seal, there is no need for the alignment tool, thats for when you pull the cover off. Its used to pull the cover down to the oil pan.

When I did my cam install, I followed the instructions on LS1Howto.com. I took my cover off, and reinstalled it without an alignment tool. I haven't noticed any problems, and this was back in November 2006.
