If you are going off what the Official Zombie Survival Guide says, then the answer is no. Zombies can't use guns. They are dead and their one and only objective is to obtain food. If Bub was a "real" zombie (By real, I just mean if he was as they describe zombies in that book.) then he wouldn't have been able to use the gun. Instead, he would have just been chomping savagely at the air towards the doctor and any other living being that came near.

While they couldn't "really" talk, the brain craving zombies from the Return of the Living Dead movies are actually closer to what Zombie Survival Guide describes than Bub is.

No ability to think or reason at all. Just the sole goal of eating meat. That's it.

A zombie could not figure out how to shoot a gun, nor would he even attempt or want to. (In my opinion and the Zombie Survival Guide's.)
