Absolutely! When I knew the times where I was unable to workout, I would pre plan my previous weeks and hit the gym to the MAX!
During the couple of weeks off, mentally, I knew my body needed to recuperate! I'm unaware of your occupation type but, in mine previous job, I was able to take my breaks and do a quick 15 minutes of abs, pushups etc. I ate VERY strict, so the loss was minimal in muscle but one thing that may have affected was when I returned to the gym, the pounds I was pushing decreased. But it took me a week to get back to where I needed it or left off with.
Just keep the diet very strict and sound, do what you can in between (for exercises) even if it's a quick powerwalk to the car and keep your mind free and you shall overcome your time off and probably be even stronger and better within a matter of a week and half!
