Sure, anyone can do anything.

Here's my "bold prediction" though - neither of those $1,000+ units will ever sell as well as the Quest. Especially WRT the consumer segment, Meta probably won't even stock the Quest Pro on shelves. It's clear that the Pro is more of a jab at the Hololens market anyways.
