If you accept being alcoholic then NO.
It's good you posted this because it reminds me trying to rationalize using somewhere down the road. Never worked. When I really got sober it was with acceptance of who/what I am, understanding I can't drink/use now, or ever. Of course, I just don't have to drink/use today.
Hope you let go the idea of drinking somewhere down the road, because it hint's at not really being in surrender/acceptance of your alcoholism. Once you arrive there you will know without asking, I can't drink now, or ever.
Wish you the best in your journey........
Peace
