Yes of course. Football players aren't limited by size although sometimes size is in direct relation with the player's ability to be a good at football. There are no size restrictions in football. There are some medical restrictions. And as long as the 5'2" player has at least a year of eligibility left it is perfectly fine for him/her to play.
