For example, if an object is rotating at an increasing rate due to a net rotational force can it still be in a state of translational equilibrium since there is no translational force acting on it?

Sure.

For translational equilibrium, the sum of the forces (net force) must be 0

For rotational equilibrium, the sum of the torques must be 0

One condition does not imply the other
