You could, but I don't think you would get the effect you are looking for. Finely shredded potato works better. Zesting is usually confined to the skins of citrus fruit.

You would end up with a Potato Peel, ..."Zest" is the outermost skin layer of citrus fruits which contains flavorful aromatic oils.

I believe only citrus fruits can be zested

Sure. Or Ivory, or Palmolive, or ?
Sorry. You shouldn't have told me not to. If you think we're bad in the US, take a look at my "cost of a house in London" question. Brutal!
Anyhow, why would you want to? It can be done, but the result would be pretty tasteless.

No. You can use a box grater and grate one to use in latkes.
