Best Answer

Of course providing that you are sincere, and so is your repentance. The only way a priest's absolution is valid is if the person confessing is sincerely sorry, and intends to change his way of life and live henceforth as a Christian. An insincere confession is worse than useless, it is sacrilege, and an additional mortal sin.
