Interestingly there is some material on using a head and shoulders as a continuation pattern.. “In the previous chapter, we treated the head and shoulders pattern at some length and described it as the best known and most trustworthy of all reversal patterns. The head and shoulders pattern can sometimes appear as a continuation instead of a reversal pattern.
In the continuation head and shoulders variety, prices trace out a pattern that looks very similar to a sideways rectangular pattern except that the middle trough in an uptrend (see Figure 6.11a) tends to be lower than either of the two shoulders. In a downtrend (see Figure 6.11b), the middle peak in the consolidation exceeds the other two peaks. The result in both cases is a head and shoulders pattern turned upside down. Because it is turned upside down, there is no chance of confusing it with the reversal pattern.” Taken from the wise words of John Murphy.

If that Head and shoulder appears at the top of an uptrend, then yes it can be considered as a possible reversal
