Yes, you could. When we weld, we use several different techniques. They will work out there in space. For instance, if you have an electric welder, it will still pour out a bunch of electric current when an arc is struck. The arc and the following current will create the molten metal "pool" at the site of the electrode and the work just like on earth, and you can create a bead. But you won't have to worry about the effects of air on your weld. No flux will be required to prepare or keep your material clean. Certainly if we wanted to trouble ourselves to haul up welding gas to weld, we could do that, too.
