I’m working in a two gang box, currently has two switches (1 3way with a neutral wire, on old 2 pole switch)

I’m trying to replace the old 2 pole switch with a Dimmer Switch that requires a Neutral Wire.

The 3way switch next to it has a neutral wire.

All other neutrals are cut short and crimped.

Can I run a jump off the neutral wire on the 3way switch, for a neutral on the new dimmer switch?

Before I do something stupid, hoping for some feedback...

Thx David
