Timing belt alignment

I become so fixated on the problem getting the crankshaft bolt and balancer off (A complete nightmare and 3 broken wrenches later) that I totally forgot to align all my marks before I pulled off the timing belt. I removed pulleys and tensioners, water pump etc, and then realized I did not line my marks up before removing the timing belt. I know the motor is noninterference but I just want to be sure I get everything on its proper mark before I put it all back together. I could kick myself for this amateur mistake!
Can I just line the cam and crankshaft gear marks up and put the belt on? Is there a possibility if I do that I could be 180 degrees off somewhere?
Motor is the V6 5vzfe

Yes, you can. No, you're fine.
