According to this, nearly everybody can, with training. https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2015/02/everyone-...
I used to be a singer when I was younger, and I was good. But then I gave it up and without the continuous practice, my ability to carry a tune tunefully has severely diminished - my biology remains the same (well, add a few years), but my level of skill has dropped off, and hence so has my singing.
Tone isn't the only issue. Some people simply lack range.

Barring physical disability, musical instruments are accessible to a much wider audience. Not to mention that there are a wealth of instruments to choose from.
