Other than yes, I don't really know what to say.

umm are the axwes all they way off the car? cuzz i dont know about others but all of my tranny fluid drains when my axels are out so if you dont have any trany fluid i wouldnt be starting it IMO but go for it if not

With the tranny empty, I wouldn't do anything more than quickly see if the engine starts. You don't want the trans spinning without any oil in it and even with the clutch disengaged there is often some coupling between the engine and trans.

I'd wait until the axles were back in and the trans filled.
