    Yes you can. Run a wire from a 12V source to the sidemarker bulb. Then take the ground of the sidemarker & connect to the current wire that is connected to the turn signal. What you will get is a bulb that is lit at all times, grounding through the turn signal bulb. It will also flash alternate to the front bulb when your turnsignal is blinking.

    The difference in resistance between the small side marker versus the turnsignal allows the turnsignal bulb to be seen as a direct ground.

    Simple, elegant & free solution.
