Certainly, it is possible. There are a number of drugs that reduce inhibitions enough to make people compliant and susceptible to suggestion. Both legal and illegal. Alcohol is probably one of the most common. Of course even the intent to do so is illegal in most countries.

No, it is not ethical or legal to use medication to control someone's behavior against their will. Medication should only be used to treat medical conditions and should never be used as a tool for manipulation or coercion. It is important to respect an individual's autonomy and personal choices.
