Yes they can. I am in the same boat and have a clearance. It all depends on the security clearance interview that they will do to determine your character and what really happened with the felony. They came to my home and did a 3 hour personal interview then interviewed everyone i know basically including neighbors and friends to determine if i was trustable and if the felony was a one time mistake or not.
