Yes if you have a static IP that is IANA routable. DNS= Domain Name System or sometimes Domain Name Server. Fancy terms to describe that we as humans have a hard time remembering 4 octets of numbers. We remember words better. So DNS converts a routable IANA approved IP address, to a name.
So instead of typing in http://69.147.114.210 we type in http://www.yahoo.com
The computers don't have a problem remembering the octets, so the initial request goes through a resolver that is a part of your browser. From that point on it's strictly IP to IP communication and DNS is no longer required, until we make a new DNS request.

Above gotten really blank-faced pooch-screw up, DHCP is the one dishing out dynamic IPs DNS is about conversions of IPs to/from human readable names.
Yes static is centric in forming a DNS zone, usually that be the DHCP server by convenience for most. DNS works as a top level networking protocol and work hierarchically to collectively solve the kind of problem "What is the IP given the domain and host name?"
However registering a top level domain is not automatic and from registering a name to actually complete a setup is a pricey supposition.
