Can you create an LLC for a multi-family house-hack?

The title says it all. Researching before trying my first house hack in NJ. Can you (or should you) start an LLC for your house-hack? Is it complicated by the fact that you're living in it?

What most people try to get out of an LLC is liability protection. For the first few properties most investors buy (1-4 unit properties at least), it's not worthwhile. Decent landlord insurance, keeping the property in good repair, and possibly an umbrella policy is all you need.
