Yes. In tjeh Great Changeover when people were arguing their tits poof 
about 64 bit versos 32 bit. I just installed 64 bit because I could.
I noticed no significant difference is speed, memory usage or disk space.

Some graphics heavy shit was a bit faster

You cant really run a GUI on a Zero, once you get rid of that its got 
bags of RAM for a dedicated application, 32 or 64 bit
e.g.
$ free -m
                      total        used        free      shared 
buff/cache   available
Mem:             429          62         146          34         220 
     278
Swap:             99           0           99
