Of course! If it has an installer, run it through Bottles first.

Mount the ISO file in KDE/GNOME
Create a new bottle in Bottles
Open the bottle and select the executable on the mounted ISO to start
When choosing an install directory, install to the Z: drive if possible so you don't have to look for the files in your Bottles prefix
Follow the installer normally

Once done, you can either start the game directly in Bottles or create a non-Steam shortcut in Steam and select the exe of the game you just installed.

I prefer running it through Steam because then I always have access to the latest Proton versions.

Didn't try FF7 but played Alan Wake 2 like this.

I've also noticed that for some repacks it is better to use a different runner to install and then switch to a gaming runner for running the game.
