Sure.
Why not? The whole "UGH i hate WW2 games!" is so like 6 years ago.
I mean i never minded them, i like the period, its got interesting guns, and its a damn interesting time period.
Hell i dont even mind modern day shooters, sure its a bit overflooded at the moment with those, but I'm still heavily looking forward to BF4. I'd prefer if it was a futuristic battlefield game (BF2143 anyone?! COME ON!)
My only issue with period based shooters, or modern day realistic ones, is you can't go too crazy with gadgets or weapons. You set a game in WW2 and I'm already fully aware of the weapons that are going to end up in the game. No fun gadgets like active-camo, or little helper drones, or auto-turrets, stuff like that.
Futuristic shooters are the way to go IMO. It's just more freedom for the developers to make stuff up and be creative. They can add in "Brutes" easier (you know big tough enemies). Throw in some mechs, or robots, or aliens whatever!. Space magic? WHY NOT! If you look at the two big shooters coming out soonish. Destiny and Titanfall. Both are futuristic styled shooters. I honestly think BF4 and CoD:Ghosts are the last big modernish shooters.
But yes, if there was a good WW2 shooter, i'd absolutely play it.
