Yes. In fact, even when I am installing desktop environments, I will use my trusty netinstall CD anyway because I prefer doing the installation myself- I feel insecure at the mercy of the installer, and prefer to just apt-get things myself anyway. I'm a bit of a control freak that way. I have a really shaky internet connection, and I would just hate it to die on me halfway through an enormous (say, GNOME) installation and then have the entire thing fail. Much better to deal with things afterwards. More control.
