Found I have some yellow jackets trying to get behind my siding in the j-channel/post at the end of the siding. Can I caulk up and down the entire length of the channel where the siding ends to close that gap off?
Not my picture but I would caulk along green. Yellow jackets trying to get into a gap similar to red.

That's not a good idea. Vinyl siding expands and contracts quite a bit with temperature. By caulking it you prevent movement and could cause buckling or other warping. It would also look bad.
The insects would just find a new location and you'd end up doing it all over again. A better approach is to use aromatic deterrents. More on that
