Yeah, I think so. If you immediately go to their base, all of the workers will pull off the line and attack you, so you have to put the first cannon on the low ground and then like 20 seconds before it's done, put the 2nd cannon up top.
You want to try to get them to pull and then have your first cannon kill all the workers. Then it's easy game.
But if you don't do that, it's like infinitely harder, but not impossible.
It seems like there is some trigger that will cause them to stay on the mineral line, like your first cannon finishing before you get your 2nd so you have to time it and get your 2nd up so they pull off the line.
Then you just go behind their mineral line and put another pylon + cannon and it's pretty much over. Then just place pylons/cannons all over the place until you kill all of the structures.
Zerg is a little harder because you can't get close enough. So you just have to try to contain them the best you can and then get gateways up. But if you're able to kill the workers, it's so much easier.
