You could—“with a lot of additional adjustments”. You would to have to actually work at turning them into Slytherins, and doubly so if there are no natural Slytherins there at all to lead the way. And probably not everyone anyway.
My claim is that most humans outside of fairy tales already are Slytherins.
I seem to have a somewhat more cynical outlook. Judging real humans by the criteria of the sorting hat would result in far more Slytherins than members for the other houses.

If that were so it would defeat the whole point of placing anyone in Slytherin to become one. And my point would still hold for the other houses.
Yes, more or less. Unless there is some reason you want people to become better Slytherin.
