I've done it quite a bit in the past. I used two 6" x 8" pieces of 1/2" plywood connected with a couple pieces of webbing that draped over the gunnel. I then put the mount on that so it had a bit more stiffness in the area where the motor was mounted. It helps prevent any damage to the canoe finish as well.
I'm assuming that your motor has a mount that allows a full 360 degree rotation as well. Most small ones do.
