It's possible. On my notebook, Ubuntu sometimes 'forgets' that the fan is
running at full speed, so the CPU gets pretty cool when idle. I
usually run glxgears or a simple primenumber-calculator to get the
CPU-temperature above 50°C. Then, when the CPU goes back to idle and the
temperature drops, the fan gets shut down properly.
