Certainly. Any database can be used as a template. template1 is used
by default. Check out the CREATE DATABASE docs:

createdatabase.html

Well, if you haven't loaded data into a database you want to use as a
template (or it only has data you want to include in the new
database), you can use CREATE DATABASE as well.

Hope this helps.
