Can you make espresso with coffee beans?

I just got a new espresso machine — but I have no espresso. Would it be at all feasible to use coffee beans to brew espresso, or is this useless? What’s the difference? If I end up using coffee beans, should I be using a light, medium, or dark roast?

    Espresso is made from coffee beans, ground very finely. they are often called espresso beans because of the way they are roasted, which gives them their richer and bitter flavor.
