EVAL-ADL5246 Biasing

Hello,

I am purchasing the EVAL-ADL5246, however I would like to make sure I bias the amplifier properly to prevent damaging the part or something similar.

I plan to use the amplifier in "Full chain operation mode".

4 separate low-noise LDOs will supply 3v3 to the VCC1, VPOS1, VPOS2 and VCC2 pins on the evaluation board. 

Is this allowed? Would the part function properly with this power/bias configuration?

I would like to clarify this power configuration because, although the datasheet states the ADL5246 can operate in 3V3 or 5V mode, Table 8 in the datasheet only talks about a 5V option on the evaluation board.

Can I use 4 separate low-noise LDOs (i.e. the ADM7172ACPZ-3.3)  to supply 3v3 to the VCC1, VPOS1, VPOS2 and VCC2 pins on the EVAL-ADL5246 board?
