Sure. I can't read music nor did I ever take any lessons. I taught myself piano (with the help of looking up a few basic chords first). With the Uke, I had a look at some chord charts, learnt where my fingers were meant to go and that's it.
I think that's the most 'unaided' you could probably do it. But it doesn't hurt to have a look at some guides on the internet now and then. Without using anything at all, you'll jut make it more difficult for yourself.
As I said, it depends on your aptitude for picking it up. Having an ear for music can help a lot more than a book teaching you proper methods sometimes.
