Answer:Yes

Explanation:

Yes it is possible for a gas contained in a chamber to maintain a constant temperature while heat is being added to the gas. A process in which temperature of the gas remains constant is called Isothermal Process. For an ideal internal energy is a function of temperature therefore internal energy remains constant while all the heat added is converted to do the work done by the system.
