Yes that is alright. You can feed on paper towels as long as they don't swallow that..
but in my own opinion I like feeding separately from their 'house' because they would not think that it's feeding time all the time when you take them out.
Cause sometimes when they are used to being fed in their 'house' they might just think that everything coming into it's 'house' is food...and start to strike....so that is why I like to feed in it's feeding tanks......
just my own preference.....
to get them less aggressive from my little opinion....

If you expect to open the viv and put your hands in fairly frequently, for reasons other than feeding, your snake should not associate the opening with feeding. For example, I feed my hatchling every 5 days. I also open the viv at least every other day to provide fresh water, and every day (except for 48 hours after feeding) to take her out and handle her. She does not associate the opening with feeding. My adult has always been fed inside his tank, and is about the least aggressive snake you can imagine. I frequently take him out and handle him, or open the tank for fresh water.
On the other hand, if you don't expect to be opening the tank very often, you might want to feed outside the tank for the reason Simon mentioned.
