Yes, they are fine, although mine don't like them. Just keep all treats to a minimum (like 1 T/day per 5 lb bunny) and start very small to be sure the orange doesn't upset your bun's GI system.
Here are two good sites with diet info:

I had eight rabbits and they loved a variety of foods dry cereal was one of their favorites alot of greens and carrots I think fruit is ok but I wouldn't suggest alot to much suger could make your furry little friend sick

yes. but only a little bit since wet fruits and veggies tend to give rabbits diarhea.

Yes, the only food my veterinary said not to feed my rabbit was cabbage and broccoli.

yeah sure try it. only offer a little bit though because bunnys have very sensitive tummys. you can only try. they may enjoy it.
