Yes, absolutely, assuming they can present some evidence that they really do have that many customers. Also, if the ISP were growing quickly enough they might well be given a bigger block than a /23, so they wouldn't have to come back again for more too soon. I believe the registries are considering taking growth rate into account, as well as customer count, when deciding how much space to allocate to an ISP.
