Yes, it can be 8GB+4GB, 16GB+4GB but why you have to do that ?  You won't get the benefit of dual channels architecture.

It turns out that if you install one bar on 16gb, it makes no sense to leave the second on 4gb? What would you recommend in this case. One stick per (16gb) or two sticks per (2 x 8gb) or (16gb + 4gb)?
