FPP Configuration, Bank 2A and reuse

Is it possible to reuse configuration pins (e.g. FPP) during User Mode? We have a 16-bit parallel bus to FPP-configure the FPGA from a Host and want to reuse the same 16-bit bus during User Mode (for...

Hello Alex, thank you for your positive response. Correct, the FPGA will be operated as a memory-mapped peripheral by the Host in User Mode.
