Yes, you could.  X will do whatever it's told.  I once found it
amusing to run tkdesk as my "window manager", for example.  But it's
really not something I would advise to someone not experienced in
running X without a desktop environment.  Since beryl doesn't even
provide a menu to launch apps, nor does it default to starting a term
window, an inexperienced user probably would find themselves quickly
lost.
