    This is definitely possible. A very common use case is publishing custom vector tiles to Mapbox, but since you want to host the tileset itself on your own server, you can use something like tilelive to do so. It's easy to create your own custom .mbtiles with Mapbox Studio, but it's an open specification, so feel free to create your own from arbitrary geographic data.
