Using the (Samsung) TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S222L, Yes ...
but not using the internal PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-106D.
And the DVR-106D has v. 108 firmware? If not, you CAN flash this on
your Mac. You can get firmware and flash tool for it here:

Also, the Pioneer is older and has restricted media types.
Here's a chart that shows EXACTLY which types of discs the DVD-106D
can use, and about half the discs aren't available to the DVD-106D
(the ones with the "X" don't work in the DVD-106D):

These charts are complex and you need to look at them carefully,
especially for the difference between DVD+R and DVD-R discs. It
appears the DVD-106D can only handled discs that are x2 or x4 discs,
with the possible exception of being able to use the x8 DVD+R discs
also. The DVD-106D is a 4x writer and thus incapable of recording any
dual-layer DVDs, but it should read them.
