Hi Alex,
Once you are ready to serve, you can't move around. You have to remain still while you throw the ball up.

Hitting the Ceiling
When the ball hits the ceiling the point is over. You must hit the ball directly back onto the table otherwise you lose the point. In International tournaments the roof needs to be at least 5 metres above the playing surface but in local competitions you might often encounter much lower ceilings.

You can as long as you are not in the ready position to serve.
