You can, but you really can't. Sure, you could buy the expansion just for the Au Ra, but with that purchase, you're also going to unlock new content once you reach the end of 2.55.
If the muscle/bara race was locked behind a paywall (not expansion wall), I probably wouldn't even consider giving FFXIV a chance. No other race looks as good as a Roegadyn dressed for the leatherman/bear (despite the lack of body hair) bar scene.
