Is it possible to use self-supervised learning on different images for the pretext and downstream tasks?

I have just come across the idea of self-supervised learning. It seems that it is possible to get higher accuracies on downstream tasks when the network is trained on pretext tasks. Suppose that I ...

Is it possible to pre-train a CNN in a self-supervised way so that it can later be used to solve an instance segmentation task?

I would like to use self-supervised learning (SSL) to learn features from images (the dataset consists of similar images with small differences), then use the resulting trained model to bootstrap an ...
