yes, it is called PC.... ;-)

you can do anything on PC if you know some programming. otherwise there are softPLC and HMI packages that you can buy and install then it is no different than working with conventional PLC or HMI

Not sure if it's a good idea to have a PC-PLC-HMI, but if you're looking for a SCADA/HMI to control PLCs connected to your PC, check out IntegraXor.

It's completely free to try out and features a web-based HMI that you can access from any device with a web browser.
