Yes and NO depending on what kind of piping system. for drain connections yes like tub drains or fixture traps but you need access to all slip/compression fittings. and NO you can not use PVC to brass for like a discharge pipe on a waterheater PRV (pressure relief valve) or any hot water piping system

You can join PVC pipes to brass only by mechanical connections, ie a brass fitting with threads on the brass pipe and a PVC fitting with compatible threads on the PVC pipe.

You need 2 mechanical fittings with compatible threads. One is PVC to glue to the PVC and one is brass to solder to the brass. Then they screw together.

It depends on the size of PVC. For smaller PVC you can buy fittings that glue onto the PVC and allow a thread x barb fitting to be installed. For larger pipe you should get a brass compression fitting that clamps down on the PVC and adapts to a thread x barb fitting.
