Sure. The bridge is just another (virtual) network interface to the
other parts of the kernel and whether or not it actually bridges
something (because it has more than one port assigned to it and there's
traffic on them) is it's own business.

While I haven't used this so far, it's (reportedly) possible to use
netfilter rules to filter traffic between different bridge ports.
