Definitely. That's the most economical way to go, since cases of fresh unused bottles typically cost an average of $20 US. I am constantly expanding my collection of different shapes and sizes of empty bottles to use for bottling my homebrew. The most important thing is to clean them thorooughly. I typically rinse with hot water when I empty the bottles, then let the bottles sit for a few hours with hot water in them. After emptying the water, I let them drip-dry upside-down in an empty beer case with a layer of paper towel on the bottom. When it comes time to bottle my brew, I use BTF iodophor to sanitize my bottles in and out, the same way I do my other brewing equipment. Be careful, though. Bud bottles are twist-off. You can cap twist-off bottles with crown caps, but be sure to get a perfectly tight seal without dimpling the cap; otherwise you run the risk of the top popping off during carbonation. Cheers and happy brewing!
