First respondant's answer: yes.

CuriousKatze:

NO. There is no legal obligation to get either a permit or a license. In fact, this is the very nature of a LICENSE: It is official permission to do something (drive a car, fire a weapon, fly a plane), usually with a potentially deadly nature, and has certain requirements that must be met (age, physical ability, knowledge, experience...). Some states may require you to get an official state identification card, but this does not grant you any special permissions; it is only an official document verifying who you are.

Example: a 24 year old person with epilepsy cannot get a driver's license in most states, but that doesn't stop them from buying alcohol or voting, both of which require legal documentation.

I know a woman who didn't get her license until she was in her late 20's. She just didn't feel comfortable behind the wheel. It was her choice and no one made fun of her for not being ready to take on such a big responsibility. It was a wise decision.

However, you may have simple mis-worded your question. If you meant to ask if it is ALLOWED for someone of legal age to get their permit, then the answer would be "yes" depending on where the permit-seeker resides and if they pass all other qualifications. This depends on your state's official policy, so check their official website for better info.
