Yes, you can, but you can't buy a single-chip microcontroller, using the Z80
core, not some "sorta" Z80-like" thing, that requires no external components
except a clock.

If it has to have external memory, external peripherals, or anything other
than the oscillator, then the parts count will be too high.
