Well yeah of course you can. The pi 400 is even an official computer kit turning it into a homecomputer akin to a commdore 64/amiga 500/acorn/bbc micro etc.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

That’s a poor analogy given that the Pi 5 & Pi 400 are incomparably more powerful than 1980s home computers, and I don’t think OP was asking if a Pi 5 can run WordPerfect or VisiCalc.
Okay, I wanted to say that the computer would be integrated just like the computers I mentioned.
Forgive me but the Pi is an order Of magnitude better than the dinosaurs you mention.
NO WAY. Sorry I didn't realise how a
64-Bit CPU with a clockspeed of 1.8 Gigahertz with RAM of up to 8 Gigabytes, USB connectivity, HDMI outs, Wifi and other shit
could EVER be superior to a (respective to an Amiga 500)
16-Bit computer with a speed of 7.16 MEGAhertz with 512 KILOBYTES of RAM
You REALLY opened my eyes.
(sorry for being overly sarcastic)
I am sure you can, but you will likely get better performance from a mini PC for roughly the same price.
you can get a mini PC for 87€ with BETTER performance than the Pi 5?
We are looking at:
2.4 GHz, 4GB of RAM, 4kp60 HECV de/enconding.
