Yes this is possible.we will explain it by the following example:
Suppose a body is moving in a circular path of radius 'r' and completes a revolution in time 't 'then,
Total distance travelled=circumference=
2πr
and displacement=ánal position-initial position=0
So,
velocity=displacement / time=0
and,speed=distance/time=
2πr /t

no it not possible because velocity = displacement / time
and displacement is shortest path for distance .
if speed = 0 then distance also =0
and then velocity also =0
and displacement is shortest path for distance .
if speed = 0 then distance also =0
and then velocity also =0
