Yes, you can do that. Main jet ( and to a certain extent, the emulsion tube ) determines A/F ratio at low rpm, air corrector at high rpm.
Emulsion tube affects the "curve" of the A/F ratio between low and high rpm during acceleration.
Theoretically you could nearly obtain the the correct A/F ratio throughout the throttle range with the correct main/emulsion tube/air jet, and then less accelerator pump shot required.
One book of mine states to run air jets in the 60-80 range, then pick the main jet, then choose the emulsion tube. This is all after the correct venturi is chosen for the application.
