Yes; I'm currently running up-to-date versions of Guix System on a
ROCK64 and a Pinebook Pro, both AArch64 systems from PINE64
(https://pine64.org/).

I wrote at the time about my experience getting the ROCK64 up and
running, including a sample operating-system definition:

This is still essentially current, except there is no need for the
ridiculous dance involving moving a jumper around; turns out U-Boot
offers a command that makes it easy to start up from one device but
finish booting from another.

As others have noted, AArch64 support in Guix is generally quite good
now, but a certain amount of patience is required.
