And good luck to you! I'm a novice as well, so hopefully we can grow a lot during this jam.

Of course you can. No one can make a game without checking any reference even experienced people. (Except genius)
If you want, I can share some of my tutorials with you. Here is my channel~

For a lot of people Game Jams are a learning experience. Forbidding to watch tutorials would kill the spirit for a lot of peaople.

I've been a professional developer for more than a decade. Reading the documentation, googling stuff and checking tutorials is a big part of where I spend my time, and some days it's the only thing I do. If you're not sure how to do something or what your options are, why not ask someone with experience? That's what tutorials are to me.
