AWS WAF on custom website

I have a website that is not protected by a WAF. I would like to configure a AWS WAF to it.

I could not find any option on AWS WAF to protect a custom website, just cloud front deployment.

Is it possible to protect a custom website that is not using Cloud Front?

But it's not that hard to install CloudFront over your (static or dynamic) website, here are a few links to the documentation:
