Can I Move from REPE to Traditional PE?

Currently in REPE, more on the portfolio management side. Currently work on asset valuation and fund modeling. Interested in applying to traditional PE roles in the summer cycle, but curious to hear any thoughts on if my experience could translate over and if I have a decent shot of being considered.
