I hope I understand your question,

As far as I know.. servlets are not restricted in any way like an applet do.
A servlet can do virtually anything a normal java application can do. ( A
servlet actually do have some restrictions, but.. not as strict as applet.)

Remember.. an applet will be invoked on client machine, therefore strict
security measure must be inforced to avoid applet programmers doing
something they should not do on the client machine.

The answer is... yes.. servlet can do the job without 'signature'.
