No an atheist can not believe in god.

a·the·ist

[ey-thee-ist]–noun

a person who denies or disbelieves the existence of a supreme being or beings.

To jonathanlobl.

We have a definition of belief...

be·lief [bi-leef]
–noun 1.something believed; an opinion or conviction: a belief that the earth is flat. 2.confidence in the truth or existence of something not immediately susceptible to rigorous proof: a statement unworthy of belief.

3.confidence; faith; trust: a child's belief in his parents.

4.a religious tenet or tenets; religious creed or faith: the Christian belief.

But I am curious does your 'operating theory' through your personal observations of the nature of reality/universe/whatever agree with the scientific methodology? ie.. do you see or 'know' things that would not be testable?
