Maybe. If the wrong location gives you some other legal argument, it is possible. Some examples: location is outside the officer's jurisdiction; location is outside district justice's jurisdiction; location has higher speed limit. However, after you raise the issue, the officer may ask the district justice to amend the citation. Will the officer's request be granted? :Really depends on the mood of the justice that day. If you are going to try it, go to court dressed in your Sunday best, be respectful, address the justice as "your honor", stand when you speak to court and maybe.

If it is a simple error the judge may allow it to be amended. But, if the location gives you speed or alibi defenses use those if possible.
