WAN VLAN setup without LAN - is it possible?

I have an intel d2500cc board with two onboard NIC's. I'm running nanobsd on it and it is running fine with basic configuration. I'd like to add some VLAN's (switch is netgear GS108Tv2). would it be possible to do this - I created a rule to access the webconfigurator via the WAN and that is working. Can I just delete the LAN after creating the VLAN's?

Can I later access the webconfigurator via one of the VLAN's?

my plan:
WAN
OPT1
OPT2

Yes you can delete LAN, though you could also just reassign it to one of your VLAN interfaces. The only thing that makes LAN different to any other interface is the pre-defined firewall rules.

You will only be able to access the webgui via another interface if you have setup firewall rules to allow it.
