Yes, you can. Set the Base SDK to 4.0 and the Deployment Target to 3.1. See the documentation and release notes (Xcode's Help menu -> Xcode Release Notes).

To make certain you are not using any 3.2/4.0 specific APIs, you need to test it on a 3.1 device. There are ways to use 4.0/3.2 APIs on devices running it using conditional code, but if you're only using 3.1 APIs, you don't have to do anything extra.
