Yes you can, it can be achieved this way.

If you Create h1, h2, h3 paragraph styles and use them for chapter headers, section headers and subheadings you can then create a Table of Contents from the LAYOUT menu. When you save the TOC the pointer cursor will display PLACE TEXT. Place it anywhere on the pasteboard off the page. The TOC will display in it's own text box.
When exporting to ePbub the TOC will be included. See the attachment of the InDesign export dialogue box which features the settings for exporting the TOC from InDesign that I use. Don't include fonts if you require it to validate.
