I can think of at least two detective shows - _Without A Trace_ and _Cold Case_ - that do this multiple times per episode, as part of their general structure. As long as it's made clear that it's a flashback (for example, a fade-to-white transition before and afterwards), I don't see any problem with you doing this.
