Yes you can.  I think perhaps your confusion comes from the fact the 
"objectclass" type is the first attribute type defined in the file:

attributeTypes: ( 2.5.4.0 NAME 'objectClass' DESC 'Standard LDAP 
attribute type' EQUALITY objectIdentifierMatch SYNTAX 
1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.38 X-ORIGIN 'RFC 2256' )

Note "attributeTypes:" at the beginning - you are quite free to change 
whatever you wish, noting the dire warnings given previously :)
