Yes, except for the fact that the install needs you there to hit enter a few times. Apt says "is this correct [Y/n]", "press enter to continue". The packages scripts may ask you for info as well. A better solution may be to try and setup a mirror program and just grab packages you are interested in (X, libc, dpkg, other essentials).
