All the  on my site get margin-bottom of 20px.

I don’t want to apply this margin-bottom to  which contain an  element.

Is it possible to this without classes or id’s.

CSS3 can be used.

To apply style to all p not containing an em:

p:not(:has(em)) {
    margin-bottom: 20px;
}

~~I’m afraid this isn’t possible with pure CSS.~~
