Performing CRUD operations on front end in wordpress

I’m currently trying to create a system where I can perform CRUD operations on a wordpress front end. I’ve seen a few plugins with shortcodes that allow this, so that is one possibility. However, ideally, I would like to use javascript (i.e. when a button is pressed somehow make some call to the SQL database and update a column in the table, etc.).

Is it possible to have dynamic javascript like this on a wordpress site?

Thank you.
