No, you can’t.

Github Pages let you serve web client content (HTML, Javascript, CSS) without the need of owning and maintaining a web server. You can make sub folders, map your domain into it. Use tools such as Jekyll or Hugo with some basic programming skills, you can make your site work as good as an CMS.
