Yes, it is possible for a coefficient of friction to be greater than 1. One particular example is rubber on rubber, which, according to this, has a static coefficient of friction of 1.16.
The idea behind static friction is that in order to get an object moving, the force F that you exert on it must be at least µ_s times the normal force, assuming that the direction of the force is parallel to the surface the object is resting on. A coefficient of friction greater than 1 just means that the amount of force you need is greater in magnitude than the force of gravity pressing the object against the surface.
I hope dis was helpful 2 u..

we know friction force f=πN, where π is co efficient of friction and N is the normal force between body and surface . The quality f/N which is equal to π lies in <0 and >1.
