Hi,

Depends what you mean. Maps are not really useful as ground texture as the image will be tiled on the ground.
However, you can use a map as a background image (provided the scale is reasonable). This is sometimes useful to see roads and other buildings and to set the compass orientation and location. (Google map: right-click>What's here? to show location. Setting the compass correctly is important to show the correct angle of light when you create photos.) For outlining buildings, though, Google maps are not really sufficiently accurate.
