Not usually. It is possible for the mater cylinder get suck in the apply position, but the brake pedal would not return to the up position after stopping.

What lines are attached to the master cylinder?
Brake lines and/or clutch line depending on vehicle. For brakes, the front brake lines usually attach to the frontmost connection, and the rear brake lines attach to the rearmost connection. Also of note, the front brakes typically connect to the largest of the two master cylinder reservoirs (normally the front one).

That is due to a lack of pressure in the brake system. More precisely, you are out of brake fluid and it has leaked , more than likely , from one of the brakes, or the master cylinder has failed.

First you have to jack the car up after loosening your lug nuts and then you remove the wheel. After you do this, you have to pull the brake drum off. Next, dis assemble the brakes then disconnect the brake line from the wheel cylinder. Then you remove the two bolts holding the wheel cylinder on and put the new one in. Re install the bolts, and brake line, put the brakes back on, put the drum back on and bleed the brakes. Put your wheel back on and drive away.
What is an integral braking system?
Older cars had integral brakes, meaning that a proportional valve, which is the redundant part of a brake system that prevents total failure of brakes, if a brake line broke you will still have brakes on two wheels, and a master cylinder were all combined in one unit. A nonintegral brake unit typically uses a vacuum booster for power assist. The booster, the master cylinder, hydraulic modulator, and proportional valve are all separate units

Could be several reasons. Check the level of brake fluid in the reservoir.

Inspect all the brake lines from the master to each wheel, you will find a wet spot somewhere. Repair as necessary and bleed the system.
Why would a 1983 Chevy c10 have no brake pressure?
2 things to look for. See if you have brake fluid in the master cylinder. It has 2 sides one for the front brakes and one for the back. Look to see if they are full. If one is empty then look to see if you have a tire wet with fluid. If not then the master cylinder is shoot. R2 the cylinder and that should get you back in working order.
