Is this possible ?

Using Adobe Illustrator, I typed some text on a curved path, and then I selected the "skew" option for "text on a path" because I wanted the text to appear as if the text is on a surface.  In the Adobe Animate program, I want this text to animate around the circumfrence of another object and look like I am seeing the back of the letters at times as it animates around this other object.  Is this possible using Adobe Animate, or do I need to be using Adobe After Effects?
