The terms "before the fact" and "after the fact" are usually used in a legal sense, as in, accessory before the fact, (and similarly, accessory after the fact), to indicate a person aiding or abetting a crime before it is actually committed.
My question is, can these terms be used in a non-legal context, as in, for instance, learning before the fact, to imply something learned before its actual use is anticipated?
