Yep.
Got them front and rear on my BFe and running one on the rear of my Solaris.
Both bikes running tubeless on Flow rims. No problems setting them up tubeless, went on the rims and sealed first time.

They're pretty good tyres in the dry or when it's a bit damp and muddy. Not tried them in the heavier mud yet but I think they might struggle a bit. Overall I'm pretty happy with them. I'm a big fan of Specialized tyres and the Ground Control seem to be a pretty good jack of all trades.

Turned them tubeless on my new Camber using Stans rim strips. It was dead easy, managed to inflate them just using a track pump.
The Camber has a 2.3 on the front and 2.1 on the rear, they work ok on just about everything, even thick gloop. More grip tubeless than tubed, as you'd expect.

Do it.

I've got them on my FF29, had them for a year now and they're brilliant all rounders. Fast enough to race on and cope with mud well enough for me not to change them over last winter.

Running tubless on Stans Crests

Got them on my Solaris. Love them. Very similar to Nobby Nics, but tougher and cheaper.

Great in hardpack but the knobs are a little shallow for loam rivers,
