Sure you can. There are a bunch listed in this article: https://www.ultrabookreview.com/6520-fanless-ultrabooks/

Fanless x86 desktops are a thing too, in the form of thin clients and small PCs intended for business use. I have a few HP T630s I use as servers (I have used them as desktop PCs too, but my tab-hoarding habit makes them throttle a bit too much for my use - they'd be fine for a lot of people).

My experience with fanless Intel is that they tend to be rather sluggish for desktop GUI use, though. Which doesn't seem to be an issue with Macbook Air.

Do you have a version of that web page for people who want to run Linux? That'd be particularly helpful.

I've been experimenting with Asahi Linux recently on a spare M2 Air I have lying around, honestly very impressed. It's come on a lot since I last tried it a year or so ago

its x86, they all run linux. x86 (as in amd64) is standardized

There certainly have been issues with drivers. It'd be nice to know in advance if that's the case with any particular system.
