Well...you can, but it looks like a really really dark pink (magenta color?) when it flashes.

You can have red or amber for the turn signal in the back.

I have my 96 AV6 rear blinkers cleared out by myself leaving me with a white housing in the blinker area and the stock white bulb. I bought a red bulb, u can find them for $2.50/each at autodynamic.com. I believe that the red blinkers are okay since some cars with stock red housing for the blinkers blink red anyways(hope that wasn't confusing). The only problem is that with the white housing and red bulb, it blinks more of a pink. Its not too bright during the daytime but at night its good. I've had them for about 1 month in Houston, np yet with cops
