As always, FED is the exception.
Yes, as long as he doesn't interfere with the defensive player attempting to field the throw at first, he can run wherever he wishes.

[B]From the FED verbatim
g. he runs outside the three-foot running lane (last half of the distance from home plate to first base), while the ball is being fielded or thrown to first base; or
