No, it's not possible. Because brain development in early adolescence enables formal operations, improved memory and information-processing skills, and better performance on IQ tests. IQ scores become more stable and predict IQ in middle age. In childhood and adolescence, IQ scores are a good predictor of school achievement (Better predictor of high school grades than of college grades). So it is not possible.
