Hey there,
As far as i know you can, atleast in the BF609. They do it in BTDI's dot counting demo for the finboard which uses the BF609 processor.
I'm not 100% sure on the specifics and the code (would need to go over the project again), but they do transfer the frame into the PVP AND into the memory for storage.
Check out the dot counting demo for code examples (www.finboard.org). It's for the finboard, but the principle is the same since it is still using the BF60x.
Hope any of this helps.
Regards,
John P.
