Yes, most VFDs can run faster than the input power frequency so you can run a motor to 60Hz with a 50Hz power source. Just be aware that as speed increases, so will the current. Also be aware that a motor is rated to run a specific rpm and running faster may cause motor bearing failure after a short time.
