anything that you play on guitar that does not require open strings can be moved & played anywhere on the fretboard. Keep in mind that everytime you do this you are shifting the subject in hand to a new key. A good way to relate to this is to think of bar chords, you keep the shape & move it to the desired destination for the reqiured root, all scales work the same way.

I hope this is the answer you where looking for, you may want to try rephrasing your question, it was a little confusing......no offense taking please./
