Planning to use 3.7V non-Rechargable battery with npm2100 with an additional diode?

I am planning to use 3.7V non Rechargable Battery with Diode and Reverse Protection circuit with npm2100, Would like to build a Fuel Guage model for this as this is not available. As per Data sheet. voltage max support is 3.4V and absolute max iw 5.0V.  Let me know if this is an workable solution with npm2100.  Voltage Drop from Diode and Reverse protection circuit will be below 3.4v as per specs.
