Resource pools can be created under an ESXi host or DRS enabled cluster.

Now within an ESXi host, you can create resource pools regardless of licenses.

but in order to create resource pool under a host cluster, you got to enable DRS and there you got to refer following comparison table to in which edition DRS is available.

Compare vSphere and vSphere with Operations Management Editions | United States

Yes, you can create regardless of vsphere license unless if you are creating them directly under your esxi host.
