I have a root AD integrated zone, domain.com

I have a subdomain abc.domain.com, which is delegated (it is run by
someone else)

Can I create an A record for host.abc.domain.com on MY server?

If all you need is one name host.abc.domain.com, you can create a forward
lookup zone named "host.abc.domain.com" (without the quotes), then create
one new host record in the zone, leave the name field blank and give it the
name you need host.abc.domain.com to resolve to. If there are other names
under abc.domain.com, you need resolved differently than they are already
resolved, create the zone named "abc.domain.com", in the zone create the
record named host and/or any other name you need to resolve.
