Yes. It doesn't need to be 1 contiguous roof, gaps big enough to fit a ladder are ideal.

That's more of an awning than a roof though. Plus that picture shows that this was specifically designed with the panels. As those are just straight solar panels and not roofing that's had solar installed to it.

Awnings are fabric lol. This is a roof made with solar panels, a solar roof.

And those panels are not light weight...so someone could walk on them if they wanted.

Do not walk on solar panels.
