Easily.  I have connections where the latency is up to 300ms but a 
consistent 300ms without loss.  The key to clear VoIP isn't always the 
latency but more of an issue of packet loss and ordering.  As long as 
your packets arrive constantly and in order, most times you are going 
to find that the connection is good enough for VoIP.  Mind you higher 
latency will equal more delay in communications and echo problems, but 
those can be dealt with.
