Can I solo a 3 * raid?

Yes, you can solo most 3-star raids in Pokémon Go, but it depends heavily on the specific raid boss and your team's strength, with some like Shuckle being notoriously tough and newer Shadow 3-star raids requiring very high-level counters or specific strategies due to the new enrage mechanic. Regular 3-star raids are generally soloable for high-level trainers with strong, type-advantaged Pokémon, but some bosses (like Alakazam or Flareon) can be tricky, while Shadow 3-stars often need top-tier attackers and weather boosts.
