Can a planet realistically have multiple suns?

Several science fiction books I have read (including, IINM, Nightfall by Asimov) have featured planets with several suns. Some worlds where this happened wrought interesting effects on the inhabitants of said planet; for example, in a world that was perpetually experiencing daylight, people might be so afraid of the dark that their psychologists considered fear of the dark to be a primal, impossible-to-overcome condition of humanity.
Multiple suns on a planet makes things interesting.
