Sure.

Regarding subpackages, I'd suggest installing their docs with plain
"special" %doc -- often installing the docs in %install to a temporary
staging dir helps with this. On the other hand with doc-only subpackages
I personally think that it would often make sense to install into the
main package's docdir instead of creating a separate dir, e.g. for a
package named foo, IMO it's better to have all docs in
/usr/share/doc/foo than some in that plus some in /usr/share/doc/foo-doc.
