If you think for a while, you will understand that such statements can be made only by the year’s end. So, if my birthday is on 31 December, then I will be making this statement on 1 January.

I will further explain using the following example:
1. Consider that today is 01 January 2017.
2. Then, the day before yesterday was 30 December 2016 and according to the question, I was 23 then.
3. Yesterday was 31 December 2016, which happens to be my birthday too, and my age increases by one to become 24.
4. I will turn 25 on my birthday this year (31 December 2017).
5. I will turn 26 on my birthday next year (31 December 2018).
Now, if you read the question again, it will make more sense:
The day before yesterday(30 December 2016), I was 23 years old and next year(31 December 2018) I will be 26.

Answer:

yes this is possible.

Pulkit was born on 31st December and said this on 1st January. therefore, two days before that is on 30 December,he was 23 year old on 31st December last year, he was 24 years old. on 31st December of the year in which Pulkit made this statement he will be 25 years old and on the 31st December of the year after that he will be 26 year old making this statement true.
