Sure we do it all the time. There are CPU limitations on the amount of total traffic that can be pushed through a router that is traffic shaping. I'm assuming because all the shaped traffic is process switched. Also you will probably want to dedicate a router to it.
Typically these are only useful near the customer connection, as you can really only shape outbound packets. (unless you traffic shape at your boarders, and have a "large" network, you've already paid for the traffic by the time you discard it.)
