Yes, the profoundly deaf can have tinnitus.  I am profoundly deaf.
I have tinnitus. Q.E.D.   :-)

Luckily, mine is related to head movement.  Turning my head from
left to right produces a loud chirping in my left ear.  The
loudness is directoly proportional to the speed of the turn.  Most
of the time (almost ALL of the time) I can completely ignore it.
