Yes, but not without patching trunk. Currently, file uploads are stored in memory then written to disk. Clearly you can see this being a problem with large files of 600-900 MB. Check out [1] which has patches to stream large files to disk before saving it in its destination directory as defined by upload_to in your FileField.
