Yes, absolutely. Its one of the main reasons why kickstart exists in the 
first place.

Ideally you would run cobbler to manage the PXE server side of things - 
and it works well to manage per-machine profiles, per distro profies etc 
- and can install RHEL /CentOS/ Fedora/ Ubuntu / Suse* and to some 
extent even Solaris now. It takes about 10 min to setup, so well worth a 
look and comes with a web based UI, should you prefer that sort of a thing.
