Yes but slowly. Better to be on a lean bulk (100-200 over) more muscle and very little fat gain over many months

Why would that be impossible? Being in a caloric deficit doesn’t mean you’re starving. Just cut out most carbs in your diet and replace them with protein sources. You’ll feel satiated, be in a deficit, and build muscle.

It is possible when:
- You are a beginner (newbie gains)
- You are fat (have a lot of energy stored that the body can use for hypertrophy)
- You take roids (tren, test, clen, winstrol)

Yes. A calorie surplus isn’t even needed to build muscle

Calories are still relevant. It’s just that a surplus is NOT necessary to build muscle.
Large deficits (500+) will make it more difficult to build muscle. But anything less, and closer to maintenance is feasible.
Same applies for a calorie surplus. Maintenance and a 200 calorie surplus is the sweet spot, and anything above just puts on fat
