Sure, and for large disks I even go further: don't put the whole disk into one RAID device but build multiple segments, like create 6 partitions of same size on each disk and build six RAID1s out of it. So, if there is an issue on one disk in one segment, you don't lose redundancy of the whole big disk. You can even keep spare segments on separate disks to help in case where you can not quickly replace a broken disk. The whole handling is still very easy with LVM on top.
Same setup I've been using for 15 years at least. Just have a standard partition size and keep using that (or multiple of that, e.g. 256GiB, then 512GiB, than 1024MiB), so to keep numbers down.
