Of course they can. Whether you should style them that way is debatable, but 
surely you can, by the specs and in practice.

HTML specs only specify a suggested default rendering of documents, even 
though they may nominally sound like saying otherwise.

And CSS specs explicitly say that all elements have all properties. You can 
set them to any values you like. Not all properties have visible effect in 
all situations, but this depends on CSS specs, not HTML specs.

For example, you can style a list so that it has neither numbers nor 
bullets, or you can style non-list elements in a list-like manner. Again, 
this might not be a wise move, but it's surely possible.
