Why not, if the degree is obtained from a well known university and of good reputation in the field of the specialization.

It depends. There are some good online degrees, and it is interesting that both Oxford and Stanford offer online degrees. It is the way of the future i.e. the virtual campus. New Zealand has had a distance education university that teaches extramural students who take the same exams and get the same degrees as its internal students (Massey University).
