You can build anything using numpy. You can build a supercomputer out of duct tape if you want to. Spinning up a db, serving an API, doing natural language processing, ... whatever you want. That said, there are niche solutions that do these things well and that can save you a lot of work. There are also frameworks (such as Pyntango/Jupyter/Nbspectrum) that lets you spin up a simple API quickly.
