Yes, it is possible to pay via PayPal without adding funds directly to that account. If you have a balance in your PayPal account, for example, if someone has sent you some money or you have sold something through an auction site and so received money into your PayPal account, this will always be taken first to pay for anything you buy using the PayPal account. If that balance doesn't cover the entire cost of your purchase, the remainder outstanding will automatically be taken from your bank or credit card, depending which you have registered to your PayPal account. The same applies if you have no money at all in PayPal.
Most buyers will want to pay for their items using PayPal so you need to have a PayPal account.

(Sellers can offer other payment methods on their listings, such as checks/cheques, but if the buyer choses to use PayPal, the seller cannot refuse to accept that method of payment.)
