Yes, absolutely.  There's nothing about Seaside that forces you to use
call/answer in your applications, it's just there if you want it.  One
of the biggest projects I'm working on right now is also a reporting
application, and also has essentially no flow, but I'm still very glad
to have Seaside to write it with.  The components, renderer, and
callback system is at least half of what makes Seaside worthwhile,
IMHO; it's just historically been the less talked about side of
things.
