Not manually, no. A monster that has declared an attack that turn, may not switch into defence mode. But it can be switched by the effect of other cards, including their own, in the case of Goblin Attack Force.

If a monster attacks a defense position monster and is itself changed to defense position by Kunai with Chain can it be destroyed by battle if the opposing monster's defense is higher?
If the attacking monster is switched into Defence position, the attack ends. Damage Calculation is not entered, you do not compare the monsters' ATK or DEF.
When you attack a face up defense position monster on yugio and it has a higher defense than the atk of your monster what happens does your monster get sent to the graveyard?
No. When a monster you control attacks a monster with a Defense higher then the Attack of your monster, you take damage equal to the difference but neither monster is destroyed. The only exception is due to card effects such as Des Kangaroo.
Can you attack with a monster that has its battle position changed to attack position during the same turn?
Yes, that is allowed. You cannot, however, attack and then change to defense in the same turn.
In Yu-Gi-Oh can you turn a card from defense to attack position or attack to defense position?
Yes. Once per turn, a monster may switch from face-up attack mode to face-up defence mode, or vice-versa, as long as the monster was not summoned that turn, and had not declared an attack. If the monster is face-down, then turning it face up into attack mode is a Flip Summon, which can't be done on the turn the monster was Set from hand.
Can you Tribute Summon a monster in face-up Defense position?

Can a Monster who was switched fom attack position to defense position by a card's effect be switched back by the owner?
It depends.If the Monster declares an attack or already attacked and it is switched to defense position by a card effect (like Enemy Controller or Book of Moon for example) the Monster's position cannot be changed by you, the controller, because it declared an attack already. A Monster's position cannot be changed by their controller for the rest of a turn after they declared attacked with it.If the Monster did not attack yet this turn and their position is changed due to a card effect, it can be changed by the controller.

Can you change your monster's position into face-down defense?
The monster is flipped into face-up defense position and any battle damage that occurs is calculated. Afterwards the monster that was attacked remains on the field and is not sent to the Graveyard.Examples of monsters that cannot be destroyed in battle are Spirit Reaper and Marshmallon.If a monster attacks with an effect that enables it to deal damage equal to the difference in its ATK and the defending monster's DEF (like Twin-Sword Marauder or a monster equipped with Big Bang Shot), the damage is calculated but the monster is still not destroyed in battle.
Why can't you summon a monster in face-up Defense position?
The core rules state that a Normal Summon places the monster in face-up Attack position, and a Set places it in face-down Defense position. Special Summons are face-up Attack or Defense position, unless stated otherwise. If the continuous Trap card 'Light of Intervention' is active, monsters can be Normal Summoned in face-up Defense position.

If the monster is face-down, then turning it face up into attack mode is a Flip Summon, which can't be done on the turn the monster was Set from hand.
When a monster atacks a higher defense position monster do you lose lp?
