Yes you can and it’s how I use it half the time. Keep in mind that the system is tuned to 720p/800p so you can either have the TV resolution and take a big performance hit or have it at the native resolution.
Definitely reduces performance, but there are some AAA games I can play at 1080/60fps with no issues.
It is notably still faster than a docked switch
Turning on FSR helps this a lot though. I frequently game on my 4K TV with FAR and it looks pretty damned good.
