Solution

Yes, it can be possible that bile juice secreted by liver, directly enters into bile ducts and then into duodenum through hepatopancreatic duct.This happens in the cases where person get their gall bladder removed. But it doesn't mean that gall bladder is not important. During storage of bile in the gallbladder, it becomes more concentrated which increases its potency and intensifies its effect on fats. If it is released directly, large amount of bile will be required for emulsification of fats.
