Default How to route feed line for dipole

I'm thinking about hanging a dipole from a roof gable to a tree. Of course the feed line connects
to the dipole in the center which presents a problem: If I drop the feed line straight down it will
end up in the middle of the yard where people walk and the grass is mowed.

Is it possible to run a coax feed line back to the house along one leg of the dipole, perhaps
suspended a foot or so below it?
