It may be possible, but I wouldn't bother - Surely it can't be that hard to find a CRT TV of some description. Now, another question: would it be possible to install an NTSC 3.58MHz crystal alongside the original with a switch to choose between them? My NES is American and I currently don't have a colour NTSC CRT to play it on. At least I've learned something useful! I had no idea that the IIe Platinum was like that. I would've tried my IIe Platinum first, but it was in pieces and missing its power connector (stole it to install in a clone board for testing) so a game console was much quicker and easier to test the monitor with. If you do have the matching Apple IIe I'd suggest leaving it alone and getting another NTSC monitor for your Playstation.

If you are playing NTSC games on a modded PAL playstation your console may be confusing the issue - Back in the day some people fitted a "color mod" to force the playstation to output an almost-PAL signal when playing NTSC games. If you don't have the matching Apple IIe and just want to use it as a standard NTSC monitor you will need to replace the crystal with a stanard NTSC 3.58MHz one - I did this when it was the only NTSC monitor I had at the time and I wanted to play my NTSC 3DO. You won't get color from a platinum "international NTSC" Apple IIe on a normal NTSC TV and you won't get color on the Apple composite color monitor from a normal NTSC source. There is no PAL Apple IIe composite color monitor - The color composite monitor sold with the platinum Apple IIe is NTSC, but color burst frequency is somewhat off from normal NTSC.
