Sure can, you can use UST tires on standard rims with a tube or ust non-UST tires on UST rims with a tube. The tubeless tire is a bit heavier because the tube is basically integrated onto the inside of the tire wall (tire casings are not an air-tight material). This makes the tire a bit thicker and stronger.
