Yessir, that's what I do.
I couldn't care less if random strangers, even among the design community see my work.
What I would consider my best work, is as you said, bound by NDA's or is pitch work. If it is actually live for the world, it is often so diluted and modified by too many committees pixel fucking it to the point of unrecognizablity. Stuff I've done for alcohol, bank or auto brands are so entrenched in internal politics or limited by legalese, the creativity is lost.
Send your stuff to prospective employers under the caveat that its likely comp or pitch work. And as I've hired designers in the passed, I always find that stuff to be far more interesting anyway.
