Yes but the piston no 1 must be at top dead centre, both valves for that cylinder closed and injection pump to have just squirted to no1 injector.
(Loosen no1 injector line, ignition on, rotate pump drive clockwise till it squirts.)
Fit the belt, rotate motor to key at 6 oclock, check markings, adjust by only rotating cam or IP but they should be close.
Keep fingers away from fuel line as it's high pressure and can penetrate skin and kill you.
Tighten injector line.
After checking belt markings, tighten and rotate motor by hand 4 revolutions.
If all free, fit lower timing cover, THEN balancer and top cover
You must remember to loctite the crank bolt when you are happy with it all.
