Hey
Simple answer Yes you can
The Boss ME-80 is very versatile
I have 3 acoustic guitars so I program 3 different banks to get the sound I like
easy to program - no menus - just dial it in and save settings
I found that the 2 amps settings Clean Or AC work best for acoustic than equalize and such
for electrics it will scream - oh it also depends on your amp
also has a built in noise gate you can program
I don;t know how it will sound with small amps - I push a 100 watt Marshall MG solid state head with 4 x 12 cab and have to ability to mic if needed
Go for it
Oh forgot to say with my acoustics I also run them thru a Bob Weir Pigtroniz peddle then thru the board but that;s just my preference
hope this helps
Peace

That Bob Weir Pigtronix pedal seems like a great piece of kit! I know from experience that Pigtronix don't make no junk.

Well.................I am in the hate it camp
I thought the sounds were a little too electronic (only word In can use). Now to be fair, I have used better quality units before I used this one, so that could be it. They always state "It sounds just like the actual pedal" I never thought so.
I had originally bought it just to use at a blues jam but never bothered after playing with it. I did though find a good used VOX Tonelab ex that I actually do like and it will be going with me. Maybe their advertising is correct, with the tube in the unit makes all the difference.
I have heard that some heavy rock bands do use the ME80 for vocals
