Yes, Japan does not have any special rules or visa requirements for overseas individuals to buy or hold land or buildings.
Individuals on a student visa can buy, sell & inherit properties freely with no time limit on the ownership of a property.
The taxes are the same for non-residents as Japanese people.
It is worth noting though, simply owning a property does not entitle an individual to a visa or permanent residence in Japan.
