Yes. It's done often, though it involves a lot of long over water legs. Let's start in Newfoundland which is already in the Atlantic but it's only a few hundred nm from several places on the mainland and is well known, so that's not the real problem.
How about depart Gander Newfoundland (CYQX), 696nm to Narsarsuaq Greenland (BGBW), 649nm to Keflavik Iceland (BIKF), 582nm to Stornoway (EGPO) in the outer Hebrides on the north west coast of Scotland.

Chris H and JetDoc have given practical answers. In case you want more, use the link below to explore.
Type in 1000nm@XXXX in the Ranges Text Box and click "Display Map". (XXXX is the four letter ICAO code of the airport you are considering and 1000 nm is the range). It will display the 1000 nm range from that airport.
