Yes, it is. Most bands have a few great B-sides and then loads of crappy unfinished songs... Coldplay is the only other band I know, besides U2, in which you can say that almost all their b-sides and unreleased songs are of a great quality and could be easily included on any of the albums.

What about Pearl Jam or Oasis or Arctic Monkeys? Those bands have some great b-sides.

I don't know much about PJ, but from what I can tell, Arctic Monkeys don't have a load of great b-sides (they don't have that many singles either; and many of their b-sides are really lame, like Bad Woman, I Haven't Got My Strange or Fright Lined Dining Room), and Oasis' ones are pretty unconsistent (Acquiesce and The Masterplan might be fucking mindblowing, but songs like Eyeball Tickler or Full On lower the average pretty much). The vast majority of CP bsides are very good songs that could easily belong to the albums, I think.
