Possible, but: In addition to a partial denture there are many other restorative solutions available. Please have your Dentist evaluate your teeth, bone, and gum tissues, and then recommend the best treatment options for you.

Yes, but....: At age 49 this will not be the last partial you have & it may be likely that over several years you may lose one or all of your remaining upper teeth. A partial denture rests on your gums (sore spots can occur) & often attaches to several of your teeth, which ultimately over-stress and loosen these teeth. See your dentist for an examination and consultation to discuss the best treatment.
