Ruling Evolution Through Abilities

Hello!

I have a question which is not actually relevant in today's format. Say, I have a Pokemon in play with an ability that allows me to evolve it at a certain circumstance. For example, if I flip heads on a coin-flip (Clefable PLS has a similar ability, but this card is not relevant because of what I'll get to in a second). Can this ability be used on turn one, assuming the conditions are met?

The ability would look something like this:

Once during your turn (Before your attack), [condition to be met], you may search your deck for a card that evolves from this Pokemon and put it onto this Pokemon (This counts as evolving this Pokemon). Shuffle your deck afterwards.
 
Take for example Inkay XY, and assume that he gets confused before his first turn ends.
