Hi there,
This should be fine but it depends on timing. You should confirm with the individual. You should also reach out to HR to double-check and make them aware of the situation. Every company operates a bit differently - in situations like these it's always better to just talk to someone!

A referral is always beneficial. It is better before submitting the application but as long as you have not heard back from them it will be okay.
