In general the answer is, technically, no, you may not. However if you are passing a slower moving vehicle it would be considered 'lawful' to exceed the limit to pass the slower moving vehicle and then immediately return to the posted limit once it was passed.

Can instantaneous speed and average speed ever be different for a moving object?

Of course. When you're driving on the Interstate and you see a State Police cruiser coming up behind you, you stomp the brake and slow way down to the speed limit. Now your instantaneous speed is only the speed limit. You feel like you're crawling, you can't stand it, and as soon as you're sure he can't see you and doesn't care, you let your car come back up to normal speed again. Your average speed for the trip, or for any whole hour that includes that little episode, is comfortably in excess of the limit, although your instantaneous speed at any instant during those few minutes was exactly the posted limit.
