Does CDP Analog and digital work at the same time?

When I using a CD player ANALOG OUT (connected with an integrated amp) to play a CD, could I use the DIGITAL OUT (connect to a DAC) at the same time?

On some players you need to activate either one or both outputs in a setup menu.

Particularly for CD DVD players, cover the unused RCA (digital or analog) with CARDAS type caps.
