is it possible to put the below expression in query rule where condition?

is it possible put the same condition in queryEntity?
sample code is :
a!queryEntity(
entity: cons!EMPLOYEE_ENTITY,
query: a!query(
selection: a!querySelection(
columns: {
a!queryColumn(field: "hiredate"),
a!queryColumn(field: "empid")
}
),
logicalExpression: a!queryLogicalExpression(
operator: "AND",
filters: {
a!queryFilter(
field: "hiredate",
operator: "<",
value: date(year(now()), month(now())-1, day(now()))
),
a!queryFilter(
field: "empid",
operator: "=",
value: ri!empid
)
}
),
pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(
startIndex: 1,
batchSize: -1
)
)
)
getting the below error message
Expression evaluation error at function a!queryEntity: Cannot apply operator [LESS_THAN] to field [dtCreated] when comparing to value [TypedValue[it=7,v=2016-02-10]].
