Indeed in the documentation states that *is* allowed:

<quote>
For this reason, when two or more of these directives apply to the same
sub-path, you must list the most specific path first in order for all
the directives to have an effect. For example, the following
configuration will work as expected:

Alias /foo/bar /baz
Alias /foo /gaq

</quote>

Now, unless you have another "Alias /folder1" in your config, maybe the
problem is another one. What error is logged in the error_log when you
get the 404?
