Yes, and also be sure to take the goggles off before punching the holes
(Tell your friends, I'll be here all week... X-P )
I've also been using some Fox Motocross goggles that I like quite a
bit. If you don't like the idea of going to the Power Center, here's
an example of an online source:

Subject: Re: [Bikies] was "winter" helmets, now goggles
I found some clear goggles at a motorcycle shop which were large
enough to fit over glasses. (I think they call them motocross
goggles.) I had to improve the ventilation by punching a row of
holes along the top of the lens and removing some of the foam from
the sides and bottom. The glasses only fog up under particularly
bad conditions. Those who don't wear glasses won't have as much
trouble with fogging.
The motorcycle goggles were the only ones I have found with clear
lenses which would fit over glasses. Just hold your nose, and go
to Engelhart (or some other place where they sell toys with
infernal combustion engines). I used a sheet-metal punch to punch
the holes in the top of the lens. I used 5/16" diameter holes
spaced 1/2" center to center, at row of 13 across the top of the
lens. If you don't have access to one, a shoe repair shop may be
able to punch them with a leather punch. I would carefully mark
the location of each hole first.
