I believe so, but you would need something that connects both worlds, such as an Arduino.

You could always try not putting leds in your computer like a 14 year old.

Arduino or another cheap microcontroller is probably your best option.
Raspberry pi is overkill, except maybe the Zero. You don't need an entire OS to do LEDs.
