A bond made out of two atoms of the same element would be 100% covalent at an instance that the electrons are positioned symmetrically along the central axis. Practically, there are no 100% covalent bonds existing.

No, a bond cannot be 100 percent covalent. Even in the case of a covalent bond, there is always some degree of ionic character based on the electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms.
