Yes, you can setup any position you want and move pieces around. The question is if you load the game. The game rules are in effect then and should not allow king capture.

The board won't even load if the position is not legal.

It only impacts that one feature as far as I can see. The Analysis board won't do it

I have reported but I don't know if it will be fixed. Seems like that duplicates the option to practice with just the engine from Analysis.

it's possible to take the king if the position isn't loaded
