Change iFeature position reference with iLogic utilizing entity names

Is it possible to reassociate one or many iFeature position references using iLogic rules and to use named entities as the new position reference?

 

What I'm trying to achieve essentially.

 

A user has an iFeature that adds a chamfer to an outside corner of a part.

 

When initially placing the iFeature the user selects three references, the face of the part, the side edge of the part, and the top or bottom edge of the part.

 

For some part X sometimes the chamfer iFeature should be on the front left edge, other times it should be on the back top edge.

 

If the part has named entities corresponding to the face, left edge, top edge, back, etcetera.

 

Is it possible to write an iLogic rule that will edit the iFeature to change the references originally selected and associate them with the named entities to in the end relocate the iFeature?
