Speaking as a Gentoo user, the answer is "sort of".  Unfortunately, you're kind of 
stuck with librsvg and a couple of others if you have anything GTK.

I currently have seven packages from categories gnome-base and gnome-extra
installed (to support various browsers, Libreoffice, GIMP, Inkscape, etc.), plus a 
few Gnome-adjacent packages that live in other categories (like the at-spi2 stuff).

I would say it's extremely difficult at this point in time to run a general-purpose
desktop without any Gnome-adjacent packages on it.  The largest issue is
web browsing (qutebrowser and links seem to be free of GTK and at-spi2,
but I wouldn't trust them to support the average Javascript-choked "modern" 
website), and your only option for an office suite would be the 
KDE5-encumbered Calligra.
