No problem, the trap is to keep sewer gas from coming back up the pipe. As long as you have a trap in the system before any other line comes in your OK.

It is not usually done this way, but you can if you do not exceed the maximum vertical drop from the fixture to the trap. You will need to check with your local building official for the code in your area. If the trap is too far down the pressure of the water blows right through the trap. Usually the trap of a pedestal sink is above the floor in the pedestal hooked to the bottom of the sink going through the wall.

no, the water running down the drain from that high will siphon the trap dry and you will get sewer gas in the bathroom.
