There is no lower age limit, so yes, they can.  Personally, I would
consider 3rd graders borderline -- some do great, some just want to play
with LEGOs.  As long as you and the older kids don't have unreasonable
expectations, are patient with them, and find a way to include them, they
will learn alot and will positively surprise you.  But, I wouldn't push a
kid to move up against their will; doing a (or another) year of JrFLL can
be very rewarding.
