I'm amazed at you asking this! There is nothing to prevent a pilot operating under VFR from using any navaids he chooses. Many use GPS also. Frequently, in controlled airspace, ATC will instruct a VFR (or SVFR) flight to route via particular navaids. If the pilot is unable to do so, he just informs ATC.
