Yes, you can SNAT anything you like to anything else you like.   So long as a 
packet goes through netfilter, you can SNAT it.

However, depending on what source address you give it, the replies may or may 
not get back again, which is a separate routing problem, nothing to do with 
netfilter.

Remember that if you send packets out through netfilter and NAT them, they 
will only get reverse-NATted if the replies come back through the same 
netfilter machine.
