    Sure, if you center the "wrong" as good as possible and can solder, without making a short to next pin.

    Especially the 1. and 5. are no more on the copper trace, but only thick solder joint can bridge the gap here;

    but if you  can do this - its ok.

    It could look like mine here :  :)
