Yes you can however it depends upon what you want to do with it. Production is 
basically a 'no no' but development and testing are fine and you have many 
choices although why you want cloud based is beyond me:

- ZD&T (or zPDT) can easily be run in the various cloud providers, I've done it 
personally with AWS and MS Azure but they run much better natively on x86
- There was the WAZI aaS announcement this week but this has actually been 
around for a while as WAZI Sandbox albeit on x86 which is basically ZD&T under 
the covers. The new WAZI aaS is running directly on z and doesn't (apparently) 
use emulation
