If profiles we expressed in SHACL and the base ontology was also expressed in SHACL, one could think of ways SHACL could be used to check for validity of a profile. Yes. This is one of the purposes of creating PROF with semantics that allow for the creation of profile hierarchies (`isProfileOf`) and ways of indicating resources within those profiles that serve certain purposes (`hasRole` + `ResourceRole` vocabulary) so that mechanics (code) can be written to do such testing against a profile and all the things it profiles. This is the express purpose of Issue https://github.com/w3c/dxwg/issues/698. My pseudo code there is written do do what you ask: for a profile, find its validators and the validators of the things it profiles, join them and apply them all to a data graph to validate it.
