Is it possible to use percentage-based positioning with CSS sprites?

I am using %-based positioning to align my background images in CSS:

li a{
    background:url(icons/arrow.png) no-repeat 95% 50%;
}

I use this a lot on responsive sites, but would like to group these images into a sprite.

However, if I use a sprite, the percentages become relative to the entire sprite image, and it appears I can no longer use my background-position in the same way.

Or is there?

Sprites are not responsive. They are fixed-size bitmaps, they don't scale. So your dimensions should be fixed.
