Yes, it is very much possible that a triangle can have 3 acute angles. An acute angle by definition is one whose measure is less than 90 degrees.
Let angle A, B, C be acute in triangle ABC.
The m(A) < 90, m(B) < 90, m(C) < 90
Adding these, we get:
m(A+B+C) < 90*3
But m(A+B+C) = 180 (angle sum property of a triangle)
Hence your inequality becomes:
180 < 90*3
180 < 270
Since this inequality holds true, yes, a triangle can have three acute angles for any values of acute angles as long as they sum up to 180 degrees.
