Mesure both sides of an AC and DC circuit

So I have recently begun messing with diodes and there use in converting AC to DC. What I am curious in trying to do is to hook up my dual channel oscilloscope on bother DC and AC side to view the save form both sides generate. My question is this, is this safe to do, could I damage my oscilloscope by having separate channels measure the voltage on either side of the bridge.

Below is an example of what I would like to try.
