Can I put a receptacle behind the door?

Sure you can. The spacing rules starts at the break in the floor line. If you are talking a standard door then most certainly it could be behind the door. However, it would be more practical to use all 6' in your spacing so that the receptacle outlet is just beyond the doors edge.
