Yes it can. For example people with kidney transplants only have one kidney.
one kidney, and that's about it, you don't need your spleen or appendix though

A normal glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for one kidney typically ranges from 90 to 120 mL/min/1.73 m², similar to the combined GFR for both kidneys. However, since individuals can have varying kidney function, values may differ slightly based on age, sex, and body size. If one kidney is functioning alone, a GFR above 60 mL/min is generally considered acceptable for maintaining overall health. Regular monitoring is essential to assess kidney function over time.

One kidney may sit higher than the other due to natural variations in anatomy. It is common for one kidney to be positioned slightly higher in the body than the other. This difference in position does not typically affect the function of the kidneys.
