Cool To have boldness and imagination

It's possible in English to say "to have boldness and imagination", or maybe "we have imagination" but are bold? In other words, Is "boldness" something we can have in English, or boldness is something only to be, not to have?

Thank You

You can have a bold imagination

You can be boldly imaginative

You can be imaginatively bold

Both of these words can be adjectives or nouns.
