Sure, but it would be an extremely slow build, for most people.
When it comes to marketing, if you want it free you gotta put in the time- and in this case, plenty of extra time.
The bottom line is you need to drive traffic to your affiliate offer.
You can create a free or cheap blog and learn social media marketing, which is another skill in and of itself. You will need to get creative, pick a niche of affiliate products you want to promote, and build a lead magnet. Drive people to your blog, to your offer. There are several approaches to this but these are just the basic here.
To be a successful affiliate marketer, you have to be a good copywriter, so you can convert that traffic. If you can gain a bit of traction with that product/s you will want to spend a little bit on a retargeting pixel.
