I do it all the time and it works great. Just have to remember to connect to the VPN before you start otherwise you have to wait for the connection to timeout and try again.

All of my CF development has used data sources that have been on the same local network as the CF Server. In an upcoming project, I'll be connecting to a SQL server from CF by it's IP address via VPN over the Internet. I'm curious to hear from others who have done this if there have been any issues with dropped connections, poor performance or other difficulties from within CF. Any "heads up" tips would be a huge help.
