Yes. However, I would discount the very young and very old. It takes time for experience and temperament to take effect on the body, and all elderly people end up looking like shriveled goblins eventually. But people aged 25-55 or so are fair game.

Also, "good" and "evil" are imaginary categories, so they cannot be read in faces. More concrete descriptions of temperament can be. Resentment, loneliness, naivete, lust, optimism, cynicism, generosity, etc.
Look at Bataille, the coomer eyes are unmistakeable.

Bukowski is the perfect example of how physical appearance and character reinforce each other. He became a social outcast largely because of the horrible case of acne/boils which fucked up his face early on (described in Ham on Rye and his poem "The Boil"). Isolation then became a basic fact of his character, which further affected his appearance.
