Yes, some only.

But even if it's possible, it's useless.

thanks, asking because I am trying to upgrade my cpu and I want to figure out why I am getting no display or anything when powering on but all the fans are running and lights are on.

Can a PC turn on without a CPU?

You can press the power button.
Will anything run? No.

Nothing much will happen, and it is a useless task.
