Sure. The connectivity is really no problem; it is explicitely given, and is and will ever be read by the SMILES parser. This never was a problem. Bond orders are different. Even for PDB files deducing unknown bond orders is easier (using some simple bond length heuristics, as implemented in the RebondTool). A benzene ring (c1ccccc1) is no problem either... but that are more complex examples, for which deducing bond orders (not connectivity!) is a problem.
