Yes, but without the ability to accurately estimate opponent hand ranges and adjust to different player types, it would only be +EV at the very lowest stakes against the very worst players.
In NL it would be more complex - you would have to take into account stack sizes and bet sizing - but still possible I think.

The Full Tilt Online Poker Series (FTOPS) XV is over and done with, but online grinders looking for their next big chance at a big score don’t have to wait too long, as PokerStars’ Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP) is set to run from May 3rd-16th. The 33-event series promises at least $36 million in prize money, including a $5 million guarantee on the highest-buy-in 2-day Main Event.
Unlike the World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP), the SCOOP offers a tiered buy-in system with low, medium and high buy-in tournaments for each event. Buy-ins range from $5.50 to $10,300, so there will be an event to cater to just about any bankroll. The series action kicks off May 3rd with a 6-handed No Limit Hold’em w/ rebuys event and will continue through the month with everything from heads-up to Razz to HORSE to Badugi events.
The Main Event of the series will run on Sunday May 16th with $109, $1,050 and $10,300 tournaments with $1 million, $3 million and $5 million prize pools respectively. It is one of three SCOOP events taking place that day, which means we could see another epic Sunday like the one we saw this week.

Been playing at online Poker Stars for the last few weeks for up to $5 games and the most bizarre thing happens to me (and others I assume). That is a greater than 90% loss rate with All In bets. At some stage all in comes along either by having a very good pre flop or post flop hand. I started capturing the results when the disbelief became consistent. All hands I had the best pre flop or post flop but the other player hit every time and at times when the chance of hitting were stacked heavily against. Like I said this is a greater than 90% loss rate for all ins. Bad luck or algorithms??
