I have a pair of Gold striped Maroons that are way bigger than my Ocellaris pair in a 3' 65g but they are generally getting along. Saddlebacks may be more belligerent than Oc. but less so than Maroons, so I would say that it can be done. As with everything else in this addiction, nothing is guaranteed, especially fish behavior. The other thing to worry about is the movement of your RBTA if you have to change its position. Generally, changing the rockstructure diminishes the territoriality of fish & helps you start sorta fresh.
Lucky for me the RBTA is already on the extreme left of the tank
