Powershell to create a new AD account from a domain joined device?

[Rawns]

So we have a number of sites where we have a remote management solution on the DC's that allows us to remotely run a PowerShell script to create new domain accounts on mass. The issue is that we have some sites where we don't (and can't) put our remote management software on the DC's, we only have remote access. We do however have some domain joined devices with our management software installed.

 

My question is, does anyone know if it's possible to create a new domain account in AD using PowerShell by running a script on a domain joined device rather than directly on the DC?

If you have Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) installed, it should have the relevant powershell module for creating AD users.
