Yes you can perfectly. The easiest way if to go to www.passport.net and signup with you non-hotmail adress there. But i guess you already did that?
However, not recieving the confirmation email is a known problem for me. Some of my friends had this too. Sometimes it can take up to 48 hours, and sometimes the email doesn't send at all. They best you can do is to wait about 24 hours, if you didn't recieve it by then you could resend it. If you still don't recieve the confirmation mail then you could try to contact Microsoft about it.
Also make sure the confirmation email isn't blocked by any spamfilter on your emailservice.
