Polar alignment - Southern Hemisphere (with south view blocked)

Hi Robin! I have a question: at my country house (in the Southern Hemisphere), my view to the south is blocked. Consequently, I cannot perform polar alignment using the southern sky, even though I am in the Southern Hemisphere.

I’ve searched online but only found instructions for using SharpCap while facing south in the Southern Hemisphere. Is there a way to use SharpCap to perform polar alignment in the Southern Hemisphere while facing north?

Thanks again for your help and patience.
