Absolutely. It follows a strict set of formal rules and you can readily find sources to learn those rules. Heck, copyeditors regularly debate the specific nuances of how to consistently write Standard English.

Other dialects (and spoken language) are far less formalized. Where is the AP Stylebook or Strunk & White for AAVE?

Can you give an example where Strunk and White or a style guide vhelp to disambiguate some expression? I can't think of any.

The Oxford comma is the most obvious case I can think of.
