Yes, but not directly.
An annuity is a stream of payments paid to some entity for some limited period of time (there are lifetime annuities which are known as perpetuities).
One has the following two options for unlocking the value of an annuity:
* Sell the annuity - receive the present value of all future payments right now in a single lump-sum - you will NOT have to pay it back, however, you will not receive any more annuity payments
* Get a loan - offer the payments as security on a personal loan - the bank will ask you to redirect the payments of the annuity to their bank and either (1) directly use future payments to pay the loan payments or (2) keep future payments accumulated in a trust to guarantee that the loan gets fully paid.

Should you take out a loan from your annuity or get it lump sum and pay the tax now?
This is a choice only you can make. You have to consider your goals. Is this money for future use. If so then a loan would make sense since, in most cases, the contract would grow as if the loan was not taken, making you more money. You can make monthly payments, plus interest back to the annuity thereby rebuilding your funds. By removing the funds immediately you are taking money that is making money to use for something that probably will depreciate in value. By utilizing the loan feature it is like having your own little bank, whereby you don't have to prove yourself for the loan. One thing to remember though is if you do not repay the loan and the annuity lapses or you close it out completely you will have to pay the taxes at that time.
