Answer:
Just think you are driving a car towards East on a flat highway. When you have taken your right foot off the accelerator, the car will not accelerate eastward anymore but still it will have a velocity.

Acceleration:
acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.
Yes, it is possible to have acceleration in the westward direction, while the velocity of the object is eastward.
E.g. if you are in the car and moving eastward and then you have applied the brake, at that point of time acceleration would be in the westward direction and speed will decrease.
