Frame Relay on back-to-back routers (without FR switches)

Dear All, Is it possible to use a T1 as the physical layer, and configure frame relay over it (instead of something like HDLC) ? I want to know if we can run Frame Relay between two routers back to back without FR switches ? Or can and should one of the router be configured as a switch ? Thank
