Yes, you can; based on the inherent assumption that the "two radicals that have negative values" are, in fact, "imaginary numbers" .

Take, for example, the commonly known "imaginary number": "i" ; which represents the "imaginary number" ; " √-1 " .

Since: "i = √-1" ;

Note that: " i² = (√-1)² = √-1 * √-1 = √(-1*-1) = √1 = 1 .
