Yes but if your hardware specs is kinda low-med and server's usage is med-high, i would say No because the disk i/o will be slow (can easily drop to < 1MB/s).
try using a DB snapshot technique and not a FS snapshot. and google for DB optimization on Raid LVM and FS.

has anyone ever used LVM on a series of RAID 1 drives? and just incase 1 member of 1 group of raid 1 fails is it safe to replace the drive with a fresh one without having any problem on LVM?
Yes and yes. The LVM layer is above the physical disk layer, which is where RAID works.
