A possibility? Of course, just as it's possible for trolls,dragons, fairies and Russell's teapot to exist, and just as likely.
Absence of evidence implies (suggests) actual absence, but it is NOT proof of absence.
The existence of gods is perhaps the greatest mystery because so far,nobody has yet managed to prove or disprove his/her/their existence. All I am able to assert is "I do not believe in gods,due to the lack of credible evidence" I am in no position to claim "there is no god" because I cannot prove that claim. I am unable to assert "I believe there is no god" because that is untrue,I simply disbelieve. I may be wrong,no matter how unlikely I think that might be.
Explain how a god that breaks scientific laws (those are explanations of reality) and is defined by a mass of logical contradictions is possible to exist.
