Absolutely. In fact, from 1993 to 2013, fully 10% of the electricity in the USA came from dismantled ex-Soviet nuclear bombs through just such a arms reduction effort [1]. The material was downblended with U-238 to take it from weapons-grade to reactor-grade. The bombs that were once pointed at American cities ended up powering them. It was glorious.
