You'll have a rough go of it; most garden veggies want full (or almost full) sun. But it doesn't hurt anything to try... seeds are cheap. Next spring I'd just try a few test plants here and there, no need to till up a large garden spot, just turn over a few shovelfuls of soil, plant something, and mulch around it - treat it like an ornamental plant. That'd give you and idea of whether it would be worth expanding over the next few years.
Some plants will still produce, just not nearly as much and they won't be as vigorous as plants grown in full sun. But even a few fresh veggies are better than none, and you might be pleasantly surprised. Especially since, with only a few plants, you're more likely to coddle them a bit. A lot of folks make the mistake of starting out with too big a garden. It gets to be too much to keep up with, doesn't produce well, and they walk away with the impression that gardening is just too hard and not worth it.
