You can, I have an isspro trans temp gauge and a scangaugeII that reads from the PCM and I have it programmed for trans temp. The temps on both track very closely.

The fluid will start burning above 400°F. That's not a typo, I said above four hundred degrees Fahrenheit.
Ford specs say it can run all day long with NO problems up to 220°F. You can go up to 250°F for no more than 1/2 hour at a time. If you get above 250°F you should find a safe place to stop and idle or fast idle in park or neutral to cool the trans.
