Yes, that is quite possible. Sid and Sidux are actually the same thing,
the only difference is a customized kernel and some scripts to help ease
management. One can easily get by without any of their customization
and use their forum (or just the news module) to find out what to be
wary of.
Of course, one could also watch Debian's bug reports and get much of the
same information. It is a toss up. I just prefer having handy little
scripts, and would likely have ended up writing many scripts myself to
do many of the same things had I never found Sidux. I most likely will
be doing that anyway because no matter how much someone else writes
customization scripts, they will not likely create all of the
customizations that I want.
That is the greatest benefit I see to GNU/Linux. The ability to create
the system that suits you rather than having to conform to the ideas of
others.
On a side note, I will likely be remastering my own version so I can
install that on other people's computers and have it already set up the
way I like it, to make it easier to maintain for me, because the people
I am planning on converting will almost certainly be counting on me to
support their systems.
