Absolutely! If an object has been already traveling for 30 seconds. If you start your watch at 30 seconds, then t = 0 at 30 seconds! The velocity of the object 3 seconds BEFORE you start the watch would then be t = -3 and 3 seconds after you start the watch would be t = 3.

Can instantaneous speed be negative?

Velocity refers to the rate of change in distance of an object, and also the direction of the change, where speed just refers to the rate of change without regard to the direction, so if the object moved at all, it would have an average speed greater than zero, so No.
