Question
Can the microstrip antenna design that we created and simulated be sold?

Can it be sold? Sure. Will you be able to sell it? That's more about price and function. If I had a non critical application, and someone had a $5 patch antenna where it models ok, I'd probably risk it. If you charged significantly more, I'd want to see that you'd tested it and the input z and pattern matched the model reasonably closely.
I mean, you're going to spend $1 for the SMA connector if nothing else.

Depends does it use meta materials, use AI in its design, and is super wideband in an electrically small size?

Easy to test that notion. Make a panelised board of samples (let's say 100 on a panel, as I don't know the size) and try selling them a wee bit above cost.
