No, it is not correct. Communion is restricted to baptized Catholics in a state of grace. When you receive communion you are stating that you are in 'full communion' with the Catholic Church and believe in the true presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. That is the purpose of the recipient saying 'Amen!' when receiving the host.

If you feel you must have your head held held under water you can do it your self or have some old fogey try to drown you heh heh heh.Roman Catholic Answer: No, you can receive NOsacraments without Baptism. Baptism is a real being born again through water and the spirit as commanded by Jesus Christ. It makes you into a new being, a child of God. Until this takes place you are incapable of receiving any of the other sacraments. St. Paul warns of us in the Bible when he points out that many people are sick and even dying because they are receiving the Eucharist unworthily. An unworthy reception of Holy Communion would be without prior Baptism and Confession. An unworthy reception of Holy Communion is sacrilege, and a very grave sin.
