Yes! Definitely doable, although admittedly a bit longer than what i'd be comfortable with for a commute in my area (quite a few hills for me sadly).
So I'm assuming that would be 17km from home to work + 17km from work to home, totalling a 34km round-trip. Don't forget to give your body sufficient fuel to last the ride
I would suggest going on some shorter rides first to build up your comfort and familiarity. After a while you should eventually settle into a comfortable pace and cadence, so you don't run out of energy on your commute.
