Sure, but it would be reasonable for an outfit to (seek funding for) a CA that isn't subject to US sanction rules.
Of course there's a question of where you should put such a thing. Even Russians apparently don't find the idea of a Russian CA trustworthy (they expect that Putin would have his thumb on it, and who am I to argue?), a European CA is certainly not free of American influence, so where would this alternative be based? I don't have a good answer.
