    It is possible, but it is not advisable. You need to enclose the column name in double quotes.

    create table my_table ("MY COLUMN" number);
    

    But note the warning in the documentation:

    Note: Oracle does not recommend using quoted identifiers for database
    object names. These quoted identifiers are accepted by SQL*Plus, but
    they may not be valid when using other tools that manage database
    objects.

    The name will be case-sensitive, and you wil have to enclose the name in double quotes every time you reference it:

    select "MY COLUMN" from my_table;
    

    So… don’t, would be my advice…
