Ive done it lots of times.  If you want it really clean and get rid of odors use Nikwax Tech Wash.  REI carries it.

I've done mine in the washer on delicate mode. Usually I just hose it off and hang it. Once dry, I douse it with some febreeze so the garage doesn't reek.

I wash mine all the time.  It's important not to let the spin cycle run and a front loading machine is much better than top loading with an agitator.  I turn mine inside-out and hang it outside to dry.  When totally dry, I turn it back out and let any remaining moisture dry before putting it away.  I always use Tech wash.  I have some stains that don't come out but the suit always smells fresh and clean.
