I do precisely this, using GoDaddy. I don't see why using a service like that wouldn't be possible to get into what you want. You'd have to make sure, when you set it up, that you didn't ask GoDaddy to supply any other services, but it's certainly possible. I run my own server, I get the name from GoDaddy, but they provide no nameserver services, nor web pages. I used to get it from a different vendor, but their service turned out to stink, so I learned that it takes about a week or two to transfer the name (from X to GoDaddy), because all services (like GoDaddy) need to go to reasonable lengths to make sure that they aren't faked out by frauds.
