Yes, but: You can but the problem isn't one of over production or under production of thyroid hormone.

Not a functional one: Your thyroid appears to be functioning normally, although you could still have a structural thyroid problem such as a nodule that does not affect the function. You doc should be able to tell you.

Thyroid antibodies?: Thyroglobulin isn't helpful here. Anti-thyroid antibodies would be helpful in determining whether hashimoto's thyroiditis is present, which could ultimately affect thyroid function. With normal TSH and ft4 thyroid function is normal right now.

Maybe: With normal tsh, t4, and t3, (liothyronine) your thyroid appears to be functioning normally. But auto-immune thyroid disease can also cause the whole thyroid to enlarge forming a goiter, or specific areas to enlarge, forming nodules. But a lack of problems now doesn't mean you will always be normal. If 0.65 is high for the lab where you were tested, you may develop thyroid problems in the future.
