    Running xev and pressing shift gives me this:

    
    KeyPress event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x5a00001,
        root 0xf7, subw 0x0, time 1739516541, (174,173), root:(1021,367),
        state 0x10, keycode 50 (keysym 0xffe1, Shift_L), same_screen YES,
        XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
        XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
        XFilterEvent returns: False
    
    KeyRelease event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x5a00001,
        root 0xf7, subw 0x0, time 1739516717, (174,173), root:(1021,367),
        state 0x11, keycode 50 (keysym 0xffe1, Shift_L), same_screen YES,
        XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
        XFilterEvent returns: False
    

    So yes, it is possible.
