Sure, there's self-contained example on can compile (-O2) and test.
It's following call in test function:

test:
.LFB1:
.cfi_startproc
movq %rdi, %rax
subq $8, %rsp
.cfi_def_cfa_offset 16
movq %rsi, %rdi
movq %rdx, %rsi
call *8(%rax) <---- here
cmpl $1, %eax
adcl $-1, %eax
addq $8, %rsp
.cfi_def_cfa_offset 8
ret
.cfi_endproc
