"put someone through to..." / "transfer someone to..."

Hello Alan, Mister Micawber, Beeesneees, Mordant, Esl_Expert and other native English speakers,

Give the caller the name and phone number of the person you are transferring him or her to. "I'm going to transfer you to Jill Applegate in billing. Her direct number is 555-5555."
-----------------------------

It's possible to say "put someone through to..." both in British English and in American English to mean "transfer someone to...," isn't it?

[Mordant]

I can speak for American English. Yes, it is.

[Beeesneees]

British English too.
