Best Answer

Sylvester McCoy, the Seventh Doctor, and David Tennant, the Tenth Doctor, are the only Scottish actors to have "officially" played the Doctor, though many companions and side-characters have been Scottish.

UPDATE: As of 2014, Peter Capaldi has taken on the role of the Twelfth Doctor becoming the third Scottish actor to "officially" play the Doctor.

Can the Doctor from Doctor Who be played by anyone who isn't British?

Why not. Although all the Doctor actors so far are all from the british empire, I have not come across any rule stating that the actor needs to be British. There isn't even a rule that the doctor has to speak with a british/english/scottish related accent. Considering that the Doctor is an alien from another planet, why would he have to be British?
