Yes, you can do it.

Use an additional variable, set to have convection and diffusion. If you initialise it with a value of zero everywhere and then inject a region with a value of 1.0, you will see it move and spread throughout the flow.

Have a look at the tutorial examples. They are available on the ANSYS customer webpage.
