Yes. But add twice as much. When you use self-raising flour, add 1 tspoon of baking powder, to lighten the cake. So just add about 1 tbspoon if using plain flour.

Can baking powder and soda be used in a cooked mixture rather than in the flour mixture in a recipe?
I personally would never use baking soda or baking soda as a substitute for flour because they have different uses. Plus, that much baking soda or baking powder and no flour would leave a horrible taste in your mouth. Baking soda and baking powder are only used to make food rise while cooking and only a small amount of each is needed. While flour is more for adding density and flavour. If you're looking for a substitute for regular wheat flour, I would suggest oat flour, corn flour or soy flour.
