Not in this universe - maybe in another one. The physics that we know about and the laws that hold it together would not apply. why? we have 6 versions of quarks, gluons, electrons, muons, tau particles, have leptons (electron neutrinos, muon neutrinos, tau neutrinos) all made of energy and last of all have photons made of mass. have the higgs boson equivalent as well - when done creating what is know as the standard model of particle physics by swapping matter for energy and energy for matter. So in that universe Mass would be moving at speeds of C and energy would not! In A universe where the fabric of time and space is wrapped by energy and not mass - THAT IS NOT THIS UNIVERSE! a universe that whatever we call the photon equivalent made all of mass has no concept of time. When done with that we would then create 'atoms' equivalent from these particles and later a whole periodic table equivalent. then create interactions between these 'atoms' and create molecules and extrapolate that forward into complex molecules that replicate themselves AND THEN have complex interactions between these items and when done - we would have beings of light.... if that's too complex... I suggest we stick to holograms.
Or maybe I am wrong and I am doing what humans do best - extrapolate their experiences into other dimensions and universes we know nothing about. kinda reminds me of Christiaan Huygens and his 'celestial worlds discovered' publication who using deductive reasoning concluded that Jupiter had hemp! How... he looked at the planet and it had an atmosphere and what looked like oceans. he figured we live in a world with oceans and atmospheres. a creature on Jupiter would need to get around just like us and we have boats - so they must have boats. We have sails on our boats and thus they must have sails as well. It follows taht this sails must be made out of a raw material and ours is hemp... he reckoned that creatures of jupiter must grow hemp to faciliate their moving around.
