Can you measure the electromagnetic energy of a person?

In principle, electromagnetic energy can be measured. However, I am not quite sure what you mean by "the electromagnetic energy of a person". A person does not emit significant amounts of electromagnetic energy, except for infrared energy emitted by any object due to its temperature. If you mean that, yes, it can be measured as well.


Can energy cannot be felt but can be seen?

Yes. There are several forms of energy that can be felt, or in other words, detected by our senses. For example, infrared radiation is emitted from warm objects and this can be detected by temperator receptors on our skin. Infrared radiation is due to certain wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum and would therefore be a form of energy, electromagnetic energy. The photoreceptors in our eyes are not able to detect infrared wavelengths of light.
