Yes just be sure that the bottom of the tray is oiled or add a little liquid to the base of the tray to keep the roast from burning and sticking to the pan. If the rack in question is the oven rack then it is a very bad idea to place food or cookware directly on top of the oven element.

All roasted meats including poultry cooks more evenly on a rack. If you don't have a rack, you can put 3 or 4 carrots in the pan or carrots and celery ribs and place the roast on top of them. This way you get the flavor of the vegetables infused into the meat as well. Then when you make gravy from the pan drippings it's great.
How do you cook 30 large potatoes in the oven?

Can you cook a pot roast in a slow cooker without using water?
A small amount of water is good, especially if you are using vegetables - onions, garlic, carrots, leeks and so on. If you for some reason don't want to use any water it would be a good idea to put a rack in the bottom of the pot to sit the roast on. A circular rack, the kind that come with woks, are easily and cheaply available from kitchen stores and are great for all kinds of large-pot cooking. I'd recommend using a rack for all stove-top roasts, stocks and soups, since it stops the ingredients sticking to the base and means you don't need to keep stirring, which is a very bad thing when cooking these types of foods.
