Theoretically that is possible and a non CM binkp node is not against the rules. But it is against common sense. Binkp connectibility requires an internet connection and these days internet connetions are up 24/7. It takes EFFORT to configure a binkp system for non CM operation, it strongy reduces connectivity and there are no benefits that I can see.
Cheers, Michiel
