You can, but the final product will not be the same.

The point of using cayenne rather than red pepper flakes is that you want an even distribution of the spice throughout the final product creating a faint background of Chile heat, rather than the concentrated bits of pepper flake making each bite different in its amount of spiciness.

It won't necessarily be a bad product, it just won't be quite what you were trying to make. Even if you use less red pepper flakes than the cayenne called for, it will taste spicier in a way your original recipe wouldn't.

I'd recommend either leaving the ingredient out or substituting hot paprika
