Could time be measured metrically

[Erudite geezer]

Theoretically, could time as we perceive it be measured metrically as opposed to the arbitrary methods currently assigned?

Whilst understanding that the earth spins on it's axis every 24 hours and that it takes the earth 365.25 days to orbit the sun, could this be incorporated into a metric measure?

It would of course be incredibly difficult to not think in the seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and years we are accustomed to, but is it technically possible?

True.

But the next level up after seconds is minutes and there are 60 seconds to a minute, which is not metric.

Next level up after minutes is hours and there are 60 minutes to an hour, which is not metric.
