If you are just wanting a citrus flavor, yes you can. However, orange peel will taste different from lemon peel so you might not want to substitute.

What is orange peel and where is it avaiable?

There are 2 types of orange peel; candied and plain. Candied orange peel is used in baking (fruit cakes, cookies) and plain orange peel is used in savory dishes and sauces. It can be purchased in spice jars or homemade. To make it at home thinly shave or grate the orange part of the peel from a fresh orange. Do not include the white "pith" as it is bitter. To sweeten it boil it in sugar water and dry overnight.
