Yes. But do think a bit about how to mount them and protect them from wind noise. You would have them "head to head" with the bodys and cables going up/down. This makes for some, hmm, inventions in mounting hardware. It is a lovely combination though when the acoustics work. 30/40 is more of a general solution and there is a standard Rycote windshield available for that.
