yes, no problem. but you will have to put scrim on the joints and fill them all out at least twice and seal the plasterboard with a thin coat of pva after you have rubbed it all down.

You can paper direct onto it. Just try not to go to heavy with the paste. Or you can fill and sand the joints and screw holes as plaster board is a finish surface.
