The consensus is yes, if you have room for them. You can use deep cycle 6-volt batteries (golf cart batteries) wired in parallel. The plates in them are much thicker than a 12-volt system and will tolerate numerous discharging and charging better than 12-volt.
I have six 6-volt batteries in my motorhome. Wired in parallel to provide 12-volts, then wired in series to triple the amperage.
