Yup, no problem at all. If anything spot colour will give you a more vibrant result than process. With spot if you want green you print green, if you want purple you print purple, etc., process is CMYK.

Partly depends on what program you're working in. There's not much you really need to do though - if the art is neat, high resolution, no weird layers that might confuse someone as to why they're there, etc. it shouldn't be a problem.
