If I understand what you mean than yes, we do it and it works fine. You 
do have to sprinkle "mtu" statements all over the place - on both the 
physical port and the SVI. We use:

int Gi1/1
  switchport mode trunk
  switchport trunk allowed vlan 4000
  mtu 9216

vlan 4000
  mtu 9212

int Vlan4000
  ip address ...
  ip mtu 9100
  mtu 9212
  mpls ip
