Of course. Just go into tools/settings/search and set google as the default search engine.

@Mammal: If you go to Settings/Search and hover a search engine, you will see three circles appear to the right of it. One of these circles is a check mark, and if you click it you will have set that search engine to be your default. The other two circles are to edit, or to delete that search engine.
If you decide to use Google as default, you will notice that search suggestions no longer show for the address bar. Solve this using the "edit" (the pencil) circle. When you click on it, you will see an empty "Suggest URL" field. Enter the URL: https://www.google.com/complete/search?client=opera&q=%s in that field, and then click "ok." That will save the URL and thereafter Google search suggestions will appear for the address bar and/or the search bar, if you turn them on in settings.

@Mammal -- in Tools/Settings/Search, point your mouse pointer at google in the search engines list, & observe how automagically in the rhs column 3 little icons appear. Click on the "tick" to make google your default, & [optionally] click the Edit one if you wish to make some changes.

@Ayespy -- spluttered cusses.

@Steffie: Type faster.

Go to your settings (Alt+P), and click on the Search on the left side. You'll see a list of your search engines. In the list of search engines the default search engine will have a checkmark icon next to it.
When you hover your mouse over any search engine, 3 icons appear to the right of the search engine. No right-click is needed. If you hover your mouse over the icons, a tool-tip will pop up indicating what the icon does.
There is a checkmark icon - this will set the search engine as default.
There is a pencil icon - this will let you edit the search engine.
There is an X icon - this will let you remove any search engine.You want to click on the checkmark icon.
