From the structure of your question, we can tell that when you say "accelerating",
you mean "speeding up", although that's only one kind of acceleration.
Assuming that's what you mean, then the answer is: Of course!
Haven't you ever started to move away from a traffic light after it turned green, and
been overtaken and passed by a car that came up behind you, never slowed down,
and sailed right past you at a constant speed through the intersection as you were
picking up speed ?

No. An object is accelerating if it is changing speed or direction of travel. Since the person in question is running at a constant speed in a straight line, they are not accelerating.
No. 'Acceleration' means a change in speed or direction over time. If the car is moving at a constant speed in a constant direction, then it isn't accelerating.
Anything that is accelerating or decelerating because it is only balanced when something is moving at a constant speed.
(Its speed) x (time it spends traveling).

Yes. The simplest example is an object moving at a constant speed in a circle.
Not accelerating. It could be stationary or moving at a constant speed.
Not possible, acceleration dV/dt =0.
Yes, it's direction may be constantly changing which would mean it is still accelerating.

The object the forces are acting on will not move, or will be moving at a constant speed (e.g. not accelerating). This is called being in 'equilibrium'.
Equations of kinematics or equations of motion can not be used when the body is not accelerating or is moving with a constant velocity.
If the force acting upon an object are balanced then the object must not be accelerating
