While I don't have a PhD---I do have a master's degree in PL and have some published papers though---, yes you can do because a PhD only means that you can do a level of research required for the academia, at least in the technical sense. (PhD also suggests, but not always implies that you know enough tacit knowledge about a certain academic area.) You can even publish papers yourself if you can go through the usual academic process like peer review [1].

- gwervc 2y ago> You can even publish papers yourself It's becoming harder and harder because of APC fees :(
- lifthrasiir 2y agoIndeed, that's why I mentioned arXiv.
- nimish 2y agoYeah this is kind of nuts: >For the majority of IEEE’s fully open access journals, the article processing fee will be $1,995 USD. Some exceptions apply for certain titles, see individual journal author instructions for specific details. Reviewers don't get paid, journal editorial board members usually don't get paid, and it's all online so publishing is basically free. Rent seeking at its finest!
