Absolutely. On our old home, we did that during the spring and fall because otherwise the upstairs would be hot and the downstairs (where the thermostat was) would be cool, and the AC would rarely run. For a few year, I'd just run the fan in the on position during those times of year when the outside temp created that condition. I eventually found a thermostat where I could schedule the fan to run periodically outside of the AC running.
