Yes, but you need a top hat washer. I have just put an old school 1 piece crank fit chainwheel on a set of profiles with a washer and it works fine.

I used one from some Flights. You cn get them from BMX shops, although you may find the new school ones will need grinding down cos they are generally for thick chainwheels.
