1) legally no. I asked that question explicitly to an expert friend. Worse:
if the cycle lane is blocked by an illeglly parked vehicle, you have to
dismount and use the sidewalk, if present to walk your bicycle around the
vehicle.
2) practically you can do it, when it's safe.

The legal aspect is obviously important in case of an accident.
