No,this cannot happen.It is so because a car cannot be slowed down while it is moving at same speed along with direction.

HEYA!!!!
YOUR ANSWER : No, a body can never have its velocity constant, while its speed varies.
___________________________
⭐EXPLANATION:
Instead, it can have its speed constant and it's velocity varying as in a uniform circular motion.
_________________
The velocity of a body can be changed by:
1. Changing it's speed
2. Changing it's direction
And in a uniform circular motion, the direction isn't the same always, instead it keeps changing. While the speed can remain constant.
____________________________
So in this way, the velocity can vary and the speed can be constant. But the vice versa, isn't possible.
