Yes, A PIC can have a USB or Ethernet interface connection, and up to dozens of I/O ports. Any of these I/O ports can run a relay if there is a transistor to boost the power to activate a relay.

Light and temperature as well as sound sensors can be added using SPI enabled sensors which communicate digitally, or the more basic thermistor, using ADC to measure voltage to calculate temperature.

There are more than a few PICs on the internet today that allow you to see the temp in the room, and the status of I/O ports, and the web interface lets you toggle an I/O port to turn an LED on.
