Can I keep the same shared link but change the file?

I am working on a video with someone. I want to be able to update the file while maintaining the same Dropbox link. Is that possible? Is it possible to change a file multiple times but the same link ...

    Yes. While exporting replace the existing file. That should be fine.

Thing is though I want it to be a link to a file. Not to a folder. It should still work the way it was described to me above, that if it's the same file type and name in the same location I should be OK?
