Yes you can. Since you are a democrat, you will have to vote for whoever is on the democratic ballot during the primary. Then, for the election you can vote for anyone, regardless of the party.

In every state of the United States, voters are free to vote for any candidate in the general election, regardless of the party they are registered in or any primary they have voted in. Parties do try to make voters who participated in their primary feel a moral obligation to vote for that party in the general election, but there is, in fact, no moral or legal obligation to do so. Democracy is served best when voters are absolutely free to express their own preference.

Define primary elections?
A primary election is the election in which political parties determine who in their party will run as their candidate in the General Election. Primaries are held in various manners throughout The United States of America, usually by secret ballot among party members. Open primaries are those which anyone can vote in the primary as long as they just vote in one. For example you can vote in the Democratic Primary, but not in the Republican or other party primary. That makes you a Democrat. Or a Republican if you decide to vote in that primary instead. Closed primaries require that you register as a Democrat or as a Republican. Registered "Independents" usually cannot vote in a party primary. Occasionally the law in some states allows one to change their registration prior to the vote.
