Of course. Section 6.7 discusses this in general terms. If you want to only use 
SPF as an input to DMARC, then it wouldn't make sense to set up your system to 
reject mail just based on SPF.

Specifying receiver policy was somewhat contentious in SPFbis.  In the end, 
RFC7208 specifies almost, if not, exactly the same amount of receiver policy as 
did RFC4408 (almost none).
