Oh, YES! We have a starter that is over a year old now - all "natural" yeast. We use it for about half the bread, and commercial yeast for the other half. How "natural/wild" the yeast in the starter is is debatable, since we'd baked bread with commercial yeast in the house for five years previously. Our sourdough has tamed over the year - it's not as sour as it was when it was young.
