Yes and no.  You could enter static routes for each machine on the
remote net but only packets going to/through the router will see them.
So Internet traffic for the remote site would work fine.  LAN to LAN
wouldn't unless you added static routes to everything on the LAN.  

Going with NAT and private address space is much easier.
