Is it possible to perform a JOIN using nested queries in SQL?

Yes, it is possible. A subquery can be used as a data source (table) for a JOIN.
Example:
SELECT t1.column1, sub.column2
FROM table1 AS t1
JOIN (
SELECT id, column2
FROM table2
WHERE condition = 'some_value'
) AS sub ON t1.id = sub.id;
Here, the subquery SELECT id, column2 FROM table2 WHERE condition = 'some_value' returns a result that is then used as a temporary table with the alias sub to perform a JOIN with table1.
