It depends what you mean by 'used'.
A bipolar junction transistor can pass collector current in one direction only (i.e DC), but if correctly biased the transistor can be used to amplify an AC signal by varying the base-emitter voltage and hence modulating the collector current.
A MOSFET, when turned on by a suitable gate-source voltage, can pass AC current through its drain-source path.
