Hey Jean, welcome Smile

Sure, being an atheist just means you don't believe claims about gods. That doesn't stop you believing whatever you want about other things, including the supernatural.

As for Buddhism, I don't know a lot about it, but I think some versions don't involve a God. So those adherents are still atheists.
Feel free to send me a private message.
