Ripening green tomatoes

I have a tomato plant disease going on, yet I have some great looking green tomatoes hanging there. They have not begun to turn red and I am afraid they will rot on the vine. Can I pick them green and try to let them ripen, say in a paper bag or something else? Will they even ripen enough that way? Thanks.
