The short answer is yes. Our powder coater preferred coating stainless strips over the electrogalvanized steel material, and it made an excellent finished part. You still have rust protection even if the paint gets scratched. When we were getting strips powder coated, we often had stainless strips powder coated if they had slight imperfections that were unacceptable to be sold as polished stainless.
