No. You need to start with a plant.

Re: is it possible?
You can find dwarf cavendish plants at most big box home improvement stores during the summer. They should be similar granted you get it to fruit.

Search online for Musa 'Gran Nain', which is most commonly the store bought banana. If you are looking for something with similar flavor and less height (if you have limited space), go with Musa 'Dwarf Cavendish'. |
