Question..
Is it possible to be just friends with someone you were (might still be) in love with?
In my unprofessional opinion, it can be possible. It might take some discipline and setting boundaries, but if you love this person and want them in your life whether in a friendship way or a relationship way, it can work. It won't be easy but I believe in you. :)

It is possible. It is soooo difficult at times, but it's possible. I say this from my own experience.
I've been in love with my close friend for 9 months, and I told him. Too late. He did love me as well at an earlier point, but he is moving on. He has a girlfriend now.
Our friendship is still super important to me, so we're working with it. It's been a month now and while it did take some time and it hurt, things are better. I didn't talk to him for about two weeks? The space really helped give me some time to think, and now I am sure we're going to be fine.
So I just want you to know that it is possible, if you want it. 🙂
