Absolutely!
For the best option, I recommend the Hollywood Racks RV Rider - 2" Hitches # HLY64FR. The RV Rider comes with a massive 80-pound per bike weight capacity. Also, one of the huge benefits is that the rack attaches to the frame with independently-adjusting cradles. With these cradles, they work perfectly with your step-thru frames without the need of a bike frame adapter bar. By attaching by the frame, this avoids any unnecessary risk of damage to your fenders like you would have from a wheel-mount style rack. It is important to note that the clamps on the RV Rider are designed to fit bike frame tubes between 1" - 2" in diameter.
As far as compatibility, the RV Rider fits bike tires up to 5 inches wide and wheelbases up to 60" long. It is also constructed to withstand the extra force and torque when mounted on a motorhome, fifth wheel trailers, and flat-towed vehicle. It also works perfectly on cars/trucks/vans/SUVs. I went ahead and attached a photo of a neighbor using the RV Rider with a step-thru RadRunner model.
If you have a 2" hitch installed, I recommend measuring from the center of the hitch pinhole to the outside surface of the bumper. As long as that measurement is less than 7-1/2 inches long, you won't have any bumper clearance issues with the RV Rider.
If you need a hitch, feel free to respond to this answer with your year/make/model of vehicle, and I will be happy to recommend you the best hitch.
