Taken male? if it's a solid, happy relationship probably
Straight and single? No. This isn't an all encompassing no, there are going to be exceptions to the rule, but generally speaking no, it's not possible.
Men consider women as potential partners on a relatively simple metric. Looks, personality, male attention, and random shit like shared hobbies. You add up the plus and the minuses and match them to your own standards, and that determines how you view her.
To be friends with a woman means that at the very least her personality is good and you likely have shared interests. Unless she's sucking a different cock every weekend and ugly as sin, she's not going into the dumpster tier unless your own standards are so low that any creature with tits who says something nice to you gets a pass. This is where many vtuber fans and male vtubers fall btw.
A man whose confident on the women he can date and has sufficiently high standards is ironically safer, except that the problem then comes from the woman's side, where she's trying to make a play for him, and probably ends up in an unsatisfying relationship that he's not taking seriously because she's at best someone to fuck. Reaching a "stable state" configuration where neither side is going to to try and start a relationship while remaining friendly and hanging out with each other is very small and easily perturbed.
