It can be: Most of what people call "the flu" is actually a stomach virus. Although the vomiting and diarrhea tend to resolve rather quickly, there can be a lingering feeling of nausea. This should clear up soon. Just make sure you're getting enough fluids to stay hydrated. Some home remedies for nausea include ginger tea and ginger candy. If the nausea persists, see your provider.

Yes: Persistent symptoms may not clear for 3 or more weeks. Fatigue persists weeks. Severe malaise (may persist for more than a week). Less common symptoms (20-40%): nausea or vomiting, dizziness.
