Yes, it's possible.

You gotta remember that air flows from the front, up and over and under the engine...

Just a quick note on this pic...
Red circle shows an exhaust gas leak.
It should have a similar mark on the turbo exhaust manifold.
Gasket looks okay...
Was the turbo exhaust manifold not bolted down tight enough?
Crack?
