Yes indeedy, and you may not even need an adapter, depending on your
monitor.

I regularly switch back and forth between three monitor setups:
MBP (Core2 LED, Summer 2007) alone, MBP with external VGA monitor and one
continuous desktop, and MBP feeding a television in mirror mode via S-video.

Provided I shut down completely in between uses, the system remembers the
settings used for the monitor setup it discovers on booting!  Very
convenient.

I do need separate adapters here; Apple sells them for $20 each.
