The plain view doctrine was first articulated by the United States Supreme Court in the 1967 case of Coolidge v. New Hampshire. The doctrine allows law enforcement officers to seize evidence without a warrant if it is in plain view and the officer has a lawful right of access to the object.

The plain view doctrine still applies if officers move objects so they can see evidence otherwise hidden from view?

If they move the object for a legitimate reason, or knock it over by accident, this would be considered Plain View. But, in general, purposefully moving objects in order to find something illegal is considered a "Search", and it would not be considered "Plain View", thus the evidence would be thrown out of court. The short answer to your question would be 'no'.
