It's questionable at best.

Consider the fundamental laws of the universe, such as chemical laws, electrical laws, etc. Man is not separate from these, and our thoughts and actions are dependent on the neurochemistry of our brains. For us to determine our own actions, we would have to have a consciousness independent of our brains (otherwise they would be affected by neurochemistry and not truly 'free' will, but 'adapted' will).

I hold that our consciousness is a natural result of biology and dependent on the physical components of the brain. By extension, free will is not possible.
