Growing taller: Yes, some men don't stop growing before 26 years old. It depends on when the endplates of your long bones close.

It's still possible: As there is small percentage of men who have a multiple growth spurts or a late growth spurt. Besides making sure your are eating well and resting well, the rest is up to your genetics.
