People will tell you, you can't eat sprouts & custard, or put pineapple on pizza.
Sure you can, if that's what you like.
There's literally no rule, law, or edict to stop you - only people with different opinions.
Of course, there ought to be such a law about pineapple on pizza ;))
Still opinion-based, but after comments…
I'd say the primary purpose would be to add tension. Whenever I've used them it's been precisely for that… hold the audience expecting a chorus for longer, so the switch to chorus is 'bigger' for the final run to the finish. Alternatively, for an end repeating chorus, put a bridge before the first two, then let them run round after that. I've even ended on a bridge, to leave everything hanging…
