It's definitely possible. I have been able to accurately describe a few things from about age 3 or 4 onward.

Yeah, some of my most vivid and detailed memories are from when I was 4. It’s interesting to see that there’s such variance in when peoples brains seem to start recording memories

It is interesting! I know someone who can't remember anything until age 8. The brain must have been recording but she is unable to access it.
