On a small scale, yes, but on a large enough scale that's not the case. There's always wind or sunshine somewhere. You do need to have good transport and interconnections to take advantage of that, though.

Nobody has built to that scale, and you would need a global energy grid which all countries share. Sounds like a pipe dream.
