Absolutely. Dealers can submit additional sold customer orders (or orders for their stock) whenever they receive additional allocation quantities. And they should be notified of the additional allocations in advance (like they were of the initial allocations).

Many dealers have been making lists of interested customers and some have been taking (hopefully refundable) deposits. Now that the dealers have been notified of their initial allocations, some find themselves with more people on their lists than their allocation quantity. Many honest dealers were surprised by low allocation quantities that they did not expect.
