It was certainly possible. Don't forget that at the time, he was actually doing very well. His popularity sank only after he pulled out of the race and then announced he was back in (with a murky and dubious explanation about his daughter being blackmailed or something).
Clinton was not doing so hot, was only the governor of the nations shittiest and most insignificant and poorest performing state and was also starting to catch hell for the whitewater stuff, banking scandals, the dead bodies and so on at that time. If Perot would not have pulled out like he did, he probably could have went the distance.
