Of course. Why not?
They have to disclose that the seller is an agent.
Why should a realtor have to pay some one else to sell their house when that is their profession?
Of course, if you’re interested in this property, you should have an attorney representing you, as you apparently didn’t use a buyer’s agent.

Somewhere in the information listed on the MLS it should state “Broker owned” or “Realtor/agent owner”. The agent is not actually hiding this information if he shows his own name as owner of the property.

Yes it’s legal, but if she didn’t tell you she was the owner I would avoid her and the house because it sounds like she is being evasive and a little bit sneaky.

absolutely as long as it is disclosed

Yes, usually they (as a method of ethics) include this information in the MLS. Anyone can sell their own home, including realtor’s. Realtor’s usually do sell their own property because they have the “expertise” that we all hire realtor’s for. Think of it this way….if you were a window installer, would you hire someone to install windows in your home?
That being said…..if you are uncomfortable with the seller being a realtor, or anything else about the home, I’d keep looking.
