can I drag the auto-trans in MCSCa?

Hi : I am a new owner of a MCSCa, I've had it for about a month(in the shop for painting a door ding)and I am still just getting to familiarize myself with my new auto toy.. I haven't even gotten around to naming her yet... anyways;I want to know if you can DRAG the auto transmission like a manual clutch ? I want to see if I can produce more MPG if I use the sports paddles shifting to lower the RPM say around 2000-2500 then shift to the next gearing. I was wondering if this would have any damaging effects on my new car?
