Solution

No, it is not possible. Force and displacement are necessary for doing work. In your daily life,whenever you do anything like standing, reading... people say you do work but actually physics will say you don't, because in physics work is defined when force makes a body move by a distance. In the above cases of reading and standing you neither apply force nor do you displace yourself.
Work done = force x displacement.
