Can a play, which is an adaptation of a novel, be in a first-person limited perspective?
I always thought that plays are dialoguse between two characters, which is only first-person pronouns in soliquous?

All it takes is to have a character who is also a narrator and who is less than omniscient. An example would be the older version of Tom who narrates Tennessee Williams' The Glass Menagerie. He knows more than his younger counterpart (who is also a character), but he is still presenting his own take on the drama.
Added: For the record, The Glass Menagerie was not adapted from a novel, but that does not affect the principle.
