Can I create a scriptable object. Enter data into it. Convert it to a text file and also edit the data in it as you might do in an XML and then convert it back into a scriptable object?

Once you have done that, all your assets are serialized in the YAML format.
You can now open your ScriptableObject.asset in a text editor and edit the properties.
BUT be carefull at what you change, some values must not be altered, especially the values starting with a m_
