Yes, that's the way I did it on my laptop.

Had there btrfs for about two years, but only for personal use (light 
use of snapshots), worked good for me but my experience with it is 
surely not comparable for a real production use on a server.

A advantage would also be that it's not out of tree and has really 
active developing and bug fixing ongoing.
