Yes - any alignment from the PHB is fair game.
No - Only goodly aligned PCs are allowed.
Shades of grey - Only goodly aligned & Neutral PCs are allowed
Pitch Black - Only evil PCs are allowed.
Other?
I will allow any alignment from the PHB, with the exception of Chaotic Evil (as it's too unpredictable! & they generally don't last long.) Other then that I feel it should be up to my players as to what they would like to play. It is my job to figure out their relevance to whatever plot I have planned. With the obvious exclusion of an occasional alignment theme based quest, eg: your typical "Lawful good" Paladin quests. My philosophy for D&D alignments has always "generally" been that "Good & Evil" are merely a perception based on ones goals, & morals in relation to another persons goals, & morals. (yes true there are always exceptions. I do understand the mechanics of it all, & keep them in mind.)
Good Party-A invades "evil" lizard man camp on orders from the King, who often donates money to help local no profit charity groups all the time. They kill all the "Bad guys" take the treasure, & tails back for their "good" King. little does Party-A know that the lizards are peaceful. The King likes the taste of lizard tails, & needs more treasure to support a war he's planning. But Party-A is still Good Because they didn't know. Sure!?
