Yes, you can do that. But then you are responsible for working out the bounding box or any filters that the user would like while if you go via GeoServer you don't have to write and debug all that code. Also if you stick with an international standard you can switch clients with no effort rather than starting from scratch each time. Remember GeoServer does a lot more for you than just return the data.
