It depends on the LIR – some let you, some don’t.
And no, you don’t own the IPs – the LIR does

I did so for IPv4. They're unable to delegate but can set PTRs.
For IPv6, they don't have delegation for their own range, so cannot possibly resolve mine.

Why can't users of a given range set up their own delegation? I know it should be hierarchical, but in case RIPE did not delegate anything (found SOA 0.a.2.ip6.arpa. dns.ripe.net) couldn't they delegate directly after proof of "ownership"?
