Sure.

What's the best way to use them ?
Depends...
LACP bond isn't a bad idea for better total throughput and failover.
But a dedicated NIC for management and corosync might also be useful. Especialy if you might want to run a cluster.
Or a dedicated NIC for storage/backups so a saturated the NIC when doing a backup won't slow down your other guest traffic too much.
