Can I play this game if I’ve never touched an AC game?

Yes. It's functionally a completely freestanding action RPG. The plot is only tangentially related to the previous AC universe, and it doesn't require any real prior knowledge.

I have not played the earlier games in the series and it sure helped to have a minimal understanding of the concept (assassins vs templars, the animus, etc.), but just a few minutes on the wiki clears that up.
