NO !!!! Must be Galvanized pipe with threaded fittings or Copper piping with flare fittings. If there ever was a fire, the PVC pipe would burn & burst allowing the propane gas to flow out and explode !!

If a professional plumber ( one who actually had formal training) they would never use propane unless they are suicidal.
1- Propane is heavier then air thus it pockets
2- Propane does not give the same heat as Acetylene
3- Acetylene is a lot safer .
Yes one can solder with Propane and one can solder with Mapp and even solder piping with electric where the use of an open flame is not advisable .
As long as the heat source is above the melting point of the alloy it should flow by capillary attraction
