Answer:

Yes and no

Step-by-step explanation:

Momentum in a typical mechanical system made up of macroscopic elements cannot be "hidden" from human sight. But momentum can be concealed in other systems. For instance, in an electromagnetic system, where the electromagnetic field is often inaudible to human vision, momentum can be transferred to it.
