Without difficulty? No, definitely not. The difficulty is always there, it's just internalized, ignored or worked around in various (often crazy) ways.

Without difficulties induced by scale. Some sorts of businesses will hit scale issues with excel, but many will not.

The baseline difficulty of using excel is not what I'm talking about and I don't consider it relevant since experience has proven that baseline difficulty is not much of an obstacle to real adoption.
