Provided that none of your vegetables get out of their beds and start
munching on the hedge, yes. I can't promise anything if they do that!
More seriously, it isn't ideal, as it casts a VERY heavy shadow and
is a very greedy plant, so there will be afairly wide zone near it
where nothing else will grow well. I would plant something else;
how wide and high do you want the hedge, and it is on the south side?
