You can, yes. But does that mean you should?
I could say the same about living. We give all of these values to life, having children, curing cancer, charity, etc... but there is no reason for anyone to need to think that any sort of conceived good is timeless. For instance, imagine cancer does get cured, is the act of curing cancer encouraged still? Not anymore, because its goal has been met to the end. I see values, worth and such as null. Like atheism, We are born without a belief, and may acquire 1 later on. We are born without value in friendship, but later on acquire that. The individual defines their own worth, so who are We to question their right to live or die as they command it?
This might be my nihilist talking, but meh.
