Totally. At my last $dayjob, we had a group chat for the room, where we would type stuff instead of saying it out loud. This way, conversation only flowed between people who were willing to participate at the moment.

(It didn't work perfectly. Typing is silent, but laughing at what you just read isn't.)

Typing isn't always silent; not everyone has quiet keyboards.
