What are you looking to accomplish in the martial arts training?
Generally, the overall answer is a pretty strong "No, it's not possible."
That doesn't mean that if you do know something, that you can't practice it on your own.
Nor is it absolutely impossible to learn something of value on one's own. An iaido instructor in Canada once chimed in and posted his opinion on the matter here:
You Can't Learn Martial Arts From a Book
Just remember what you're looking to accomplish, and what will be the optimal/satisficing path of training in your life.
