No.
It is a matter of definition. Acceleration is defined as a change of velocity.
Technically, one must distinguish between velocity and speed. Velocity is a vector and includes the information about the magnitude (speed)and direction. One can have a constant speed and an acceleration (as in circular motion) but, by definition, constant velocity means zero acceleration.

Can an object traveling at constant velocity have acceleration?
No. An object traveling at a constant velocity is not accelerating.
Is there an acceleration when an object traveling at constant velocity and why?
No. Acceleration is change of velocity / time. If there is no change in velocity, there is no acceleration.
Can an object traveling at constant velocity have acceleration why?
If a velocity or speed is constant there isn't an acceleration. This is because the acceleration is the change in speed or velocity and if it's constant then there sn't a change.
Can an object be accelerating if it has constant velocity?
No. The definition of acceleration is the change in an object's velocity over time. Acceleration must then be zero since velocity remains constant.
When the acceleration of an object is zero what is the velocity at the same time?
As long as acceleration is zero, the object's velocity is constant.
Can an object have zero velocity and nonzero acceleration?
Yes. An object moving at constant velocity has zero acceleration. The constant velocity van be any constant including zero velocity. Mathematics acceleration a=dv/dt = 0. Solving this gives v = constant.
If an object falls with constant acceleration the velocity of the object must?
Changing at a constant rate equal to acceleration.
An object is falling at its what if it falls at a constant velocity?
rate of acceleration
If an object moves with constant acceleration what happens to the velocity?
The velocity increases at a constant rate.
If an object is moving at a constant velocity what do you know about its acceleration?
"Acceleration" means change of velocity. If velocity is constant, then acceleration is zero.
What is Motion without acceleration?
Such and object is said to be in equilibrium. No acceleration and no force.
Can an object be accelerating with constant velocity?
No, since acceleration is defined as a change in velocity. If there is no change, there is no acceleration.
