sourcing Sourcing current with sink LED driver

I'm using an existing keypad with 8 LEDs that source power. I was hoping to use and LED driver of sorts, but all of the ones I find only refer to sinking power. Is it possible to use these drivers to source current, and if so is there a way of understanding how to convert the sinking specifications to sourcing? The Vcc for my system is 3.3v3V and LEDs are 3.4V and 20mA

Was looking at this driver: http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tlc5917.pdfthis TI TLC5917 driver.

The LEDs on keypad are    http://www.mouser.com/catalog/specsheets/Lite-On-LTST LTST-C150TBKT.pdf.

The circuit is setup like
