Possible generally - I believe so. Advisable for us - I believe not.
Only recently a legal analysis was posted by Ed Avis that came to the
conclusion that while CC-BY-SA 2.0 may be fine for data, CTs really are
required - which, assuming we take it at face value, would mean that
even if we decided to remain with CC licenses, the whole "agree to the
CT or we have to discontinue distributing your data" thing would still
be upon us.
