Yes - if you like to experiment. To be on the safe side, look in your lending library for hundred-year-old recipe books and use one of the recipes that call for buttermilk. It will produce a characteristically mild sourness. You could try substituting yoghurt in place of buttermilk that hasn't been damaged by pasteurisation and added flavours.

Of course - cooks a hundred years ago weren't stupid - if the recipe calls for buttermilk then use it. If you don't have an antique cookbook, you might have to try buttermilk to see if you like it.
