Do you want the long winded scientific explanation or the nutshell version?

Basically yes-with qualification. IF you have no previous hepatic injury or insult (your liver has no problems) AND you don't develop any problems after your first infusion AND you have LFTs monitored every six months that show no problems, you shouldn't have a problem.

As with everything else to do with medications, it is urged that you speak with your physician for more information.
I've got the piles of studies if you feel the need to read.

My LFTs are fine, I don't have any liver complications and I drink as much as I want when I want, with my doctor's consent and full knowledge. I don't drink as much as I used to, but I think that comes with age.

It's a glass or two of wine or a couple of mixed drinks now and then, but there have been times when I am with friends...
