yes it is possible, but you would have to change the water frequently. I did it with a cutting (well, with a neon pothos) and basically all I did was put it in water and put it near a sunny windowsill

100% do able. They do not require soil, there are lots plants that can be grown hydroponically . Though you will need to fertilize since it won't be getting nutrients from plain water. And change the water regularly like Ben said, for props i do it every few weeks. If you're taking a potted plants and moving to water. Just make sure to spray off all the soil/media. And you'll want to make sure the portion that was above soil, stays above water. Or this will contribute to rotting.
