Can I use a Axial lead capacitor as a Radial lead capacitor?

Hi. I am wondering if I can use my 470 uF Axial lead capacitor as a Radial lead capacitor. The store I went to did not have any radial lead 470 uF capacitors in, so I purchased an axial lead. I think I can mess with the wires to make it fit.

The only difference is where the leads come out. If you can make it fit the space it will work.

Alright! Thanks for the fast reply! I was pretty sure the only difference was the package, but I wanted to make sure.
