You can, but hefe yeast has a mind of its own. Fermcap may help, but 20% headspace may still be cutting it a bit close even with the Fermcap. I'd have a blowoff tube rigged up just to be on the safe side.

I had the same issue with wyeast 3787, I bought some Fermcap in hopes of keeping it in the fermenter, but no luck.
