Can I safely share an Access database on Google Drive?

Will the multi-user concurrency control features of Access (i.e. record locking) work correctly if I place an Access database on Google drive and allow multiple users to access the database concurrently? Thanks.
No, Google Drive is not a mapable location.
Hope this helps,
