    Yes it is possible. Momentum is calculated by the mass of the object times its velocity.

    For example, say a bowling ball weighs 3.0kg and is travelling at a speed of 3.0m/s. Its momentum would be 3.0*3.0=9.0 kg·m/s.

    Now say we have a baseball weighing 0.20kg and it is travelling at a speed of 47.0m/s. Its momentum would be 0.20*47.0=9.4 kg·m/s, which is more than that of the bowling ball.
