Hi,

You can, but the Portchannel has to be in on mode.  You cannot use it wilt LACP or PAGP.

Note:

From Cisco IOS Software Release  12.2(33)SXH and later, PortChannel interface can be a destination port.  Destination EtherChannels do not support the Port Aggregation Control  Protocol (PAgP) or Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) EtherChannel  protocols; only the on mode is supported, with all EtherChannel  protocol support disabled.

What I read from the above, it only means the destination is a port channel then PAgP and LACP won't work. There isn't any mentioning if the source is a port channel. Can I assume it would work fine if the source was a port channel while the destination was any other types as such fast, giga, tengiga?.
