The key factor will be how cold it gets during wintertime in your area. What city are you in?

Yes, a lemon tree can be planted from a seed - and you can even find seeds in lemons that have already begun to sprout...but better would be to buy a small lemon tree and plant it - if your area will support one.

They do not handle frost well at all...so if your area actually freezes, then you'll have no luck with one outdoors.

They can be tricky to grow even here in the south in Tennessee. Got to do a lot of mulching through the winter.
