No. At least, all available evidence seems to indicate that it is not possible to transfer matter, energy, or information faster than the speed of light.

Why is the speed of light limited in a vacuum?
The speed of light is not limited in a vacuum - the speed of light is fastest in a vacuum. But that is what Einstein called the "Cosmic Speed Limit" - nothing can move faster than the speed of light in a vacuum, or even quite asfast.
In a vacuum the speed of ultraviolet radiation is faster than the speed of light?
no
How does the average speed of light glass compare with its speed in a vacuum?
About 2/3 its speed in a vacuum.
What is the speed of light in miles per second in a vacuum?
The speed of light is 186,000 miles per second in a vacuum.
Why is the speed of light a fact?
A "fact" is basically anything you can state, especially if such a statement is true. Since you can say "light has a speed", and since that is true, it follows that it's a fact. Light through a "vacuum" is the meaning of "the speed of light." Light through glass is slower.
Can anything travel faster than the speed of light through a vacuum?
No.

Should the speed of light in water be faster that the speed of light in a vacuum?
No, it shouldn't. And it isn't.
What is faster than a bullet?
* The speed of light in a vacuum, * The speed of sound,
In a vacuum the speed of ultraviolet radiation is faster than the speed of light?
no
Does light travel faster in glass than in a vacuum?
No, slower. Light travels fastest in a vacuum. Anything transparent that light can pass through slows it down somewhat. Diamond crystal slows it down notably, which is part of what causes the "fire" in a diamond.
What of the following statements about the speed of light is true?
nothing can move faster than the speed of light in a vacuum APEXXX
How much faster is the speed of light than the speed of electricity without using superconducting materials eg in normal computers?
We generally consider that the force of an electric field moves at the speed of light. And electricity moves at the speed of light.
Do objects always have maximum speed?
The fastest that anything can go is the speed of light in a vacuum.
Can light exceed its normal speed while refracting?
If you mean "normal speed" to be the speed at which light travels in a vacuum, then no. Anything that differs from light moving through a vacuum slows the light down to a certain extent.
Is a speed of light faster than liquid?
The speed of electromagnetic radiation of all kinds, including light, is faster than the speed of anything else.
Is electicity faster than the speed of light?
Nothing is faster than the speed of light in a vacuum (other household appliances are left as an exercise for the reader). Electricity travels at essentially the speed of light in the conductive medium it's traveling through, but not faster.
