No, we couldn't. For one thing, our digestive systems would fail. We are filled with beneficial bacteria.

How do you stay away from microorganisms?

The simple answer is you don't! Microbes live everywhere so short of living in a sealed bubble and having all your food, clothing etc sterilised before it is passed to you through an air lock you just can't live without microbes! You are born sterile but quickly pick up microbes that are needed for you to absorb certain nutrients from you food from your mum and the environment. You also need microbes living on your skin to protect you from nasty microbes that might take their place should there be a place at the table. Anyone who decided to live in a microbe free world would have to be placed there before they had time to pick up these normal (comensal) microbes.
