You can. I have some PA address space, assigned by an LIR, that I announce out of my own AS. All "PA" means is it comes out of their parent block and, if you stop paying, they'll probably want it back.

Exactly. I have a PA /32 of IPv6 that I can sub-allocate and announce however I want. Or even lease to other people. It's my space, as long as I'm paying my LIR for it.
