So long as the weight rating of the vehicle doesn't exceed 26k, yes, with two exceptions - you would need a Class C (minimum) CDL with hazmat endorsement if the vehicle is transporting a quantity of hazardous materials which requires placards to be displayed, and you would need a Class C (minimum) CDL with passenger endorsement if it is a bus designed to transport more than 15 passengers (including the driver).
