Yes. There is no obligation to vote for the party you affiliate with; the general election is held using a private ballot, meaning even if it were illegal, it would be impossible for anyone to ever find out if you had voted Democrat and not Republican.Registering to vote for a party simply entitles you to vote in any open primary in your area; it is not pledging support for that party at that general election. It is not at all uncommon in US elections for registered Republicans to vote Democrat in the general election, or vice-versa, and it is legal in all the States with registration.

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.
You can vote by absentee ballot. I was living in Germany when I was able to vote for my first presidential election and voted absentee ballot.
