In a word, yes.  Here are a few goat recipes I found on a quick search:

Libro di cucina/ Libro per cuoco (L. Smithson, trans.)

LII - Pastry of kid good. To make pastry of meat of kid take the meat 
and cut small and make the crust and put inside the meat with powdered 
cinnamon and pieces of lard; then when it is cooked put in broth and 
rose water and let it boil together.

LXXXI - Green sauce for kid and other boiled meats. Take parsley and 
ginger and cloves and cinnamon flowers and a little salt and pound 
every thing together and temper with good vinegar; make that it is 
temperate and they won't want to wait to taste.


Le Menagier de Paris (J. Hinson, trans.)

AN HERBY MEAT DISH FOR FOUR PEOPLE. If you have killed a goat, you can 
make a dish of the first stomach (and the other stomachs?), etc., in 
yellow sauce with bacon and liver, lungs, pluck and other tripes. Cook 
them very well in water, then chop with two knives as for puree, and 
chop them up very small, or grind them in the mortar with sage or mint, 
etc., as above.


Wel ende edelike spijse (C. Muusers, trans.)

Kid and lamb. Cut in small pieces and boil them in wine. Add parsley 
and bacon enough, chop it finely. [Add] enough saffron, ginger [and] 
cinnamon to it, and egg yolks fried in it. Eat them with green sauce.
