could I put an 18 inch bar on a stihl chainsaw built for a 16 inch?

I have a Stihl 021 model chainsaw and need a little extra length on my bar. Wondering if I could run the 18 inch without messing up the engine or clutch.

    You have to make sure everything is tight. Including the clutch.

    You have to be very careful with it.
