Yes you can, if they approve a combo card for you but if I were you, Id rather not considering the risks in using AP. Look around and search here in VJ and the internet stories about those who have traveled using the AP.

9 FAM 302.9-14(B)(2) (U) Time Frames
(CT:VISA-74; 03-03-2016)
...
c. (U) INA 212(a)(9)(B)(i)(II) Departure at Any Time: The 10-year bar under INA 212(a)(9)(B)(i)(II) does not contain the same language as the three-year bar under INA 212(a)(9)(B)(i)(I) relating to the alien having departed voluntarily prior to commencement of removal proceedings. Thus, an alien who departs the United States after having been unlawfully present for a period of one year or more subsequent to April 1, 1997, is barred from returning to the United States for 10 years, whether the departure was before, during, or after removal proceedings and regardless of whether the alien departed on his or her own initiative or under removal order. The one exception to this rule (see also INA 212(a((9)(B)(v)) is that an alien cannot become inadmissible under INA 212(a)(9)(B)(i)(II) solely by virtue of a departure and return to the United States undertaken pursuant to a valid grant of advance parole based on the alien’s pending application for adjustment of status. Note that this does not preclude a trip under a grant of advance parole from being considered a “departure” for any other purposes under the INA, nor does it call into question the applicability of any other inadmissibility ground. On the contrary, it is well settled that an alien who leaves the United States and returns under a grant of advance parole is subject to those grounds of inadmissibility that may apply, rather than grounds of deportability, once parole is terminated. (See Matter of Arrabally and Yerrabelly, 25 I&N Dec. 771 (BIA 2012.)

So you didn't file concurrently? ( I-130 and I-485 together?) . I suggest file the I-485 as soon as possible with AP and EAD but the AP even if approved has a notation on the paper with no assurance of being free from scrutiny at the port of entry.
