Is it possible to have a stroke during an auto accident?

Absolutely yes.: Stroke implies both clotting with decreased blood flow, and also intracranial bleeding and trauma can cause either. Not unique is an arterial dissection in a major blood vessel with stroke developing within a few days later.
