In most states, yes.

Since many states have a lower filing requirement than the federal government, this is not uncommon. Also, if you had state tax withheld but not federal tax but are otherwise below the filing threshold, you might want to do this. Note however that most states base their income taxes on your federal tax in some way, so you are probably going to have to fill out a federal tax form in order to calculate your state taxes even if you are not required to file it.

Can you still get a federal tax refund if you didn't pay state tax the year prior?

You can file a federal tax return and get a refund regardless of the status of your state taxes. If you owe overdue taxes to the state and they have gotten around to it, the state can intercept your federal refund. So, your refund might go to paying your overdue state taxes instead of being sent to you. But unless you file a federal tax return, no refund will be generated and your state taxes will not be paid.
