Heat transfer module + optimization module

Hello to everybody,
I am not an expert in Comsol and I would like to know if it's possible to make this performance:
I want to make a simple transient thermal problem and compare it with experimental data.
I only have measures in one point of my geometry. I suppose a heat flux by convection, with h modelled by h = A+B*T.
My goal is to obtain A and B so that simulation results in that point are close the experimental data (minimize the "distance").
My question is: Is possible to make this simulation using Comsol? Maybe with the optimization module?
I've read both opinions: optimization module can or can't be used in transient problems.
If somebody confirm me if it is or isn't possible, I won't waste time.
I use Comsol 3.5a
I look forward to receiving your answers.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards.

Hello John,
Time-dependent optimization has been available in the Optimization Module starting at version 4.3; see www.comsol.com/products/4.3/#optimization
