Is it possible to pattern this
(OP)
I have this sample file. I'm trying to pattern the block seen on the left side all around the green part. Is this doable? Thanks.

RE: Is it possible to pattern this
It looks like you have a Multi-bodied part. So all you have to do is select the linear pattern and instead of selecting features you need to expand the option to "select bodies" instead. Of course when selecting linear pattern you also have to give it a direction to pattern along. This can be done by selecting a given edge from one of the other bodies in the part.
Hope this helps.

Do you want to create a feature that connects the two gray blocks that follows the green part? Or do you wnat to create instances of the block on the left that is below the green part?
I think you need to clairify what you want your end result to be.

If you want to use a pattern, you can drive the pattern in a variety of ways, such as a linear, circular or curve-driven or sketch-driven pattern, like MElam posted.
