No, government is needed to provide laws and structure. Two examples prove this. When Rome fell the world they controlled fell apart. The water systems, roads, government courts and protection was gone. Chaos ruled and strong men filled the void by taking land, building armies, having gangs of knights intimidate the population. The "Dark Age" had begun and it will last a 1000 years. Today in Somalia there is no government per sae and people are living with no services and pirates take people or kill them. It is a dangerous place to be.
No. A framework is needed and laws to govern by are needed. Look to Somalia for a place without goverment. It is place that is dangerous and has no safety for its population.

A state typically refers to a political organization with a government that exercises authority over a defined territory and population. Without a government to administer laws, provide services, and regulate society, it is challenging to have an effective state. However, some political theories suggest the concept of a stateless society, where governance is decentralized or non-existent.
Yes, a nation can exist without a state, but it is not very common. A nation is a cultural-political community that has become conscious of its coherence, unity, and particular interests. A state, however, is an autonomous entity, having sovereign government and constitutional recognition within a defined territory.
John Locke
Yes. The Government and Statemay not be formally recognized by other countries, but if its own inhabitants recognize it as the (for them) only lawful rulers and accept its laws and regulations, the Government will in fact exist and function. A good example of this is the Government of the Kurdish part of Iraq.
The United States if America
No society can exist without some sort of government. When government collapses, anarchy follows; for example, cf. southern Europe after the fall of the Roman Empire in the fifth century AD.
