NextJS as a third-party API?

Hypothetical question. Looking for answers that would help clarify my understanding of NextJS, Vercel, and serverless:
After the app has been built and deployed, is it possible for it to act as an API server for some other application? Is this a valid use-case for NextJS? Just wondering how this stack would fit in with the other parts of an eco-system of apps.
