If it's still available, sure.
You can even buy the "ancient" Nokia 3310.
The disadvantage of buying old phones is that sometimes the parts have gone out of circulation and can be scarce to find.
Also if it is an Android phone, but not a flagship then it most likely would have been "abandoned" by the OEM and won't receive OTAs.
