Since a "face" is usually defined as a flat area and no area of a sphere is flat, the answer would be NO. It is possible to place two planes tangent to the surface of the sphere and parallel to each other, but each plane will only touch the surface of the sphere at a single point rather than coinciding with a "face".

What are the solids with parallel faces?
sphere
Which solid figure does not have any parallel faces?
Sphere
Is a sphere a prism?
No, a sphere is not a prism. A prism is a polyhedron with two parallel and congruent faces called bases, and all other faces are parallelograms. A sphere, on the other hand, is a three-dimensional geometric shape with all points on its surface equidistant from its center, with no faces, edges, or vertices. In essence, a sphere is a curved surface while a prism is a polyhedron with flat faces.
What has 2 identical circular faces and one more curved faces?
A doughnut with a [radial] slice cut out of it. A sphere sliced by two parallel planes.
What are the names of faces on a sphere?
A sphere has a surface but no faces.
How many faces edges or vertices does a sphere have?
A sphere has no faces, no edges, and no vertices.
If a sphere is inscribed in a cube how many faces of the cube are tangent to the sphere?
Six Faces, because a cube contains 6 faces.
Faces of sphere?
A sphere has just one face.
What solid figure has three pairs of parallel parallel faces and all faces are congruent?
A cube has three pairs of parallel faces and all faces are congruent.
How many parallel faces does a dodecahedron have?
A dodecahedron has 0 parallel faces
Does a octahedron have any parallel faces or edges?
its has parallel faces and edges
How many faces are in a spheres?
There are zero faces in a sphere.
