Of course, although it may be challenging. Theoretically it can work
with any language, but in practice it's especially easy in English,
because English has very easy morphology and words change very little
by inflection, tense, number, gender etc. It's hard for many European
languages, too, and it will be hard for languages of India, but it's
definitely possible.
