Yes.  Get a Subway USB adapter for your clockport.  I do this all of the time using the Deneb on my A4000 and FAT32 formatted 8GB memory sticks.

Also look at using CF Cards via an adapter in your A1200's PCMCIA socket as a cheap alternative (assuming it isn't being used by something else)
A2000, A3000, 2 x A1200T, A1200, A4000Tower & Mediator, CD32, VIC-20, C64, C128, C128D, PET 8032, Minimig & ARM, C-One, FPGA Arcade... and AmigaOne X1000.

I use a Wireless Easynet PCMCIA card I bought from AmigaKit. I have MiamiDX installed. (It took me one minute to get online)
I also bought Amiga Explorer from Cloanto and can transfer files from my PC "wirelessly" :) Pretty funky.

Other than that I think there are several other solutions you can find at Amiga shops such as Amigakit, Vesalia, etc.   (PCMCIA card readers, IDE card readers, clockport USB devices, etc.

A1200, Blizzard060@50, 256MB, Blizzard IV SCSI, FastATA mk4
