Add background image to an ordered list?

Can it be styled that way with css?

Hello, I'm new to css and know you can replace unordered list bullets with images but was wondering if anyone knows if it’s possible to add a background image to an ordered list so the image is behind the ordered numbers (the effect would be like putting a text in a table with a background image behind it).... I tried this with no success:

ol, li {
padding: 0;
margin-left: 1em;
list-style-position: outside;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
background-image: url(images/myimage.gif);

Try using "negative" position with the background-position, like background-position: center -10px;

I haven't tried it, so don't know if negative positioning is allowed w/ backgrounds.
