If you really had no income, probably not.
But people sometimes forget everything that constitutes income. It's not just wages from your job. It includes interest, dividends, rents received, royalties, pension benefits, sometimes Social Security benefits, investment income, etc.
There may be some situations where you owe tax even if you had no income. For example, if you have an uncorrected overcontribution to an IRA from a previous year or you are over age 70 1/2 and failed to take a required minimum distribution from an IRA or 401k, you might owe a tax even though you had no income.
