Can I use TypeScript only for parts of Angular App?

I have an Angular 1 app I am converting over to Angular 1.5 and want to start transitioning it to TypeScript. However, it shares an app.js with the old version and I don't want to overwrite it quite yet with a TypeScript version.

Is there a way for me to leave the app.js module the way it is - and only tsc for the controllers and services?

Because of the nature of the question - I don't really have a code sample. Assume a classic angular.module for the app, and .controller and .factory for the others.

JavaScript is valid TypeScript, therefore you could change any .js file to .ts, compile it, and it would be unchanged. Typescript is a superset of JavaScript that adds features to JavaScript, it isn't its own thing (like CoffeeScript).
