Very possible as part of our training when I was in the Navy. A marine Gunnery Sargent used the slide removal technique on many of us during practice building entries to teach us the valuable lesson of not extending your pistol to far around the corner before you knew what was there. He could remove the slide and barrel before you knew he had a hold of your pistol. You look pretty stupid walking out of the training building with just the reciever. Bleed in training so you don't bleed in real life.
The pistol in question was the Berretta 92f 9mm.
