yes ..
I run 4 x 200W GE panels with 2 in series with 54V and the in parallel with the other 2 creating a total of up to 15Amp at typical 50V and a bit more at peak.
I use an Outback MPPT 60Amp solar regulator which does convert nicely to 12V.
It is a bit expensive here in OZ, but you can get it reasonably easy from the US, which I did with all my solar gear and batteries.
good luck
