That would be at the description of the capt. It shouldnt be a problem, but the he/she would make the call. Just tell'em the situation and they should be more than accomodating.
But i would say as a rule, if there is a seat in the back, the crew would probably have you back there. At my airline they added to the training cirriculum 4 fam flights in the jumpseat.
