Sure. But the goal of a DAC is (or at least should be) to reconstruct the original analog signal as it was sampled and digitized. Using this criterion a DAC without reconstruction filter is incomplete. Furthermore the amplifier-speaker-ear "reconstruction filter" is certainly not very well specified.Technically speaking, yes, but perception-wise (the speakers and the ears being the reconstruction filters) the picture is not that clear.
And all this just to get a DAC that looks great with "illegal" signals (not real, band limited, sampled signals, but typically synthetic pulses or square waves, which violate the sampling theorem) in the time domain.
