Nope! Only a double (King) may move backwards. But I like the attempt!

Official Rules of Checkers:
"Single Checkers, known as men, move forward only, one square at a time in a diagonal direction, to an unoccupied square. Men capture by jumping over an opposing man on a diagonally adjacent square to the square immediately beyond, but may do so only if this square is unoccupied. Men may jump forward only, and may continue jumping as long as they encounter opposing Checkers with unoccupied squares immediately beyond them. Men may never jump over Checkers of the same color."

Sorry only kings can move backward but is a very creative idea.

you additionally could make diverse jumps interior the comparable circulate, one after the different - in fact, if making a leap leaves you in place to make yet another with the comparable piece, you will desire to make it. whether, an unkinged piece can under no circumstances circulate backward, and "crowning" somewhat ends your turn, whether the ensuing king could have the means to proceed leaping otherwise.

If you play dirty or with a dumb person, you can. ;)
