Of course it can. Everything will work, except accelerated 3D graphics. 
Basic video will work, but not 3D.

If you want hardware-accelerated 3D, yes. Or, you'll have to install 
Nvidia's binary blobs. But if you do that, and if afterwards you have 
problems with the kernel crashing, you'll have to remove Nvidia's non-free 
drivers, and reproduce the problem without them, before anyone will help 
you.

Yes. I've been watching this situation, for the last couple of years, with 
some amusement.
