If you already know all the technical things needed to play the Flute then yes. It is just a little more difficult because it takes more breath support and it requires a tighter mouth positioning. The opening in the mouth (aka apeture but i cant spell it) needs to be substantially smaller and the lips much tighter. Other than that its pretty much a breeze. Be aware though that the super high notes do cause headaches

How do you play piccolo notes?
You don't just blow, you have to blow across the hole, and get the embouchure right to actually make a note. It may take a long time to get used to. You may find that if you can play the flute, then it is slightly easier to play the piccolo, than a person playing the piccolo for a first instrument! ; ) The piccolo is the same as playing the flute,it's just smaller and harder to hit the keys. I suggest mastering the flute first.
