No. -An "airplane" (by that definition) can not stop in air as it requires airflow around the wings to give it lift.

However some types of "aircraft" like helicopters and airships can stop in air as they do not require air flow over a wing.

What causes your ears to pop on an airplane?

The change in air pressure as the airplane ascends or descends can cause your ears to pop. Your Eustachian tube, which helps regulate air pressure in your middle ear, may have trouble equalizing the pressure, leading to the popping sensation. Swallowing, chewing gum, or yawning can help relieve the pressure and stop the popping.
