It is indeed possible. However, you wouldn't like to have all the formatting stuff from Word into your Mathematica file. I suggest you save your file as text (i.e., File|Save As|"..."|Text, and you will have your file with a .txt extension. Then use ReadList and the file will be read without any hitch. Be careful to give the exact path to your file. It is a good idea to use !! to see your file before reading it just to make sure it is there.
