I have many times. apt install whatever desktop environment you want is usually a one-liner, and they are the un-modified stock versions, not themed to whatever fancies the distro maintainer. It has been my low-effort distro for a lot of years for any purpose. Packages are on the stale-side, so you might want to use different package container types for your preferred applications nowadays.
