Sure, it's possible. King's Quest 4 did it in 1988. Of course, that was a text parser game. In an icon-driven game it's less useful because you still need to use the mouse to access your icons.

If I'm not mistaken, Al Emmo allows you to move Al around with the keyboard arrows, as well as with the mouse. I'm sure there are other point & click games that do it (I know some of Sierra's did).
