Yes, in fact I'm doinng a house on L Tahoe with log siding. The house is unfinished on the inside so we're screwing the siding from the inside through the plywood. It's a high end home and probably not the best way for your home. What you might do is screw the siding from the outside. Two screws in each stud, one through the upper part of the siding and one through the lower part, keeping them high enough or low enough that the chinking covers the screws. And where you can't cover the screws with chinking, countersink and plug the holes. We use branches and shape them with a belt sander or grinder so, the plugs look like knots. If you need any more info or advice PM me and I'll give you my phone number.
