Theoretically, sure - for certain kinds of evil. I have no particular interest in playing 'evil' as in 'someone who does the most terrible things he can think of for kicks', because I have an overwhelming urge when playing RPGs to do the most terrible thing I can think of to them for my kicks. I just wouldn't get any fun out of it, and I doubt most others would.
That said, there's other kinds of evil. There's villainy, where you take a character, give them an 'evil' objective, and have them go about achieving that in the most interesting way you can think of. There's casual evil, where they're not quite as showy as a villain, but will do evil things without breaking a sweat in the pursuit of some objective or other.
So yeah, theoretically, give me lawful evil, give me neutral evil, but I'll only do chaotic evil if I get to be a real ham about it.
That said, I haven't got quite as much experience with RPGs as I'd like, so given the option, I'd rather do not evil. The characters I pull don't tend to conform to any one side of your 9-point alignment scale, but they tend to stay out of evil.
