Of course you can.  It's often done and works well - at least so long
as people making announcements know about the echoing and don't
routinely post to both the real list and the -announce one, creating
annnoying dupage.  (no, no, not DuPage, dupage.  like mucilage but less
sticky)


[style note for Carl:  see, I had had '"real"' there at first, but you
don't need the scare quotes to understand that usage, do you?  they
just made it look silly, and provided an unnecessary opportunity for
some sensitive (or belligerent) soul to take offense...]
