Nope, only in one direction (just tried it out again, in level 9 where the enemies drop down along the side of this funnel/chute thing and you can hide behind it). It's also not possible on the PC version, FWIW. Another level that "breaks" is the "heart" (level 13?), where you can stand on the upper left edge and just shoot bubbles until you've hit all enemies inside (though sometimes time runs out first).

One thing I’ve always noticed, which I believe is related, can be clearly seen in level 13, the “heart.” If you stand on the highest platforms of the heart, just under the openings in the ceiling, and grab a water bubble from a precise spot, the stream passes through the platform. This is very useful for safely sweeping away enemies or entering the heart. You can do this from both sides, but on the right the correct position seems to be shifted further to the right.
