No, you need to use E/ER 347 to obtain optimal properties and good weld joint.
 
If Impact test is not applicable, then you can use the 316L PQR and prepare a WPS with E347 as the electrode.

Normally 321 grade is being used because of its high temperature
corrosion resistance and I do not think the designer has specified
321 just for fun...!!!
By welding it with E316-L you won't have the same high temperature
properties in weld area. because the weld metal will no longer be full
austenitic and will fail at high temperatures.

If that is not a problem then go ahead but I do not recommend that...!!!
