Yes, but you would not be able to have the colors change without relays or other switching. If you aren't interested in "shades", but just being able to switch among the eight colors (off, red, green, blue, magenta, yellow, cyan, white), you can use 3 DIO ports and a relay module similar to the following:

We are planning to do something very similar to this to display our alliance colors during matches, green (our school color) during practice, and perhaps a few others occasionally.
