Lol. Yes of course they can. The Western cape in South Africa has a huge area for deciduous fruit. They grow all varieties of apples and pears. I know the soft drink Appletiser comes from this region.
Apples need a moderate climate that will grow in all temperate zones.They grow best if there is a cold winter and a warm summer with average humidity. I can see why you are asking this question as Africa is seen as very hot. The Elgin/Ceres area in the Western Cape is in a valley called the Hex River valley and this is mainly deciduous fruit farming with apple orchards.
Of course, Apples can grow on tropical climates, the top african producer of apples is Uganda and their Fuji apple variant.
