Yes, while this has issues of its own (as long as the web services they are using are centralized and corporate controlled) I have observed the less technical users I have been helping with computer issues are totally happy as long as they sit in front of a computer with a web browser, where they can log in to their online accounts and get going.
Some might want a full mail client and possibly a printer configured and that's about it.
This is obviously quite doable with basically any distro.
