Is it possible to be so depressed, that you can't even masturbate?

Yes : This would be common in depression. Please see your family doctor for an evaluation for possible physical causes for your depression and a referral to a psychiatrist for evaluation and diagnosis and see a psychotherapist as well. Best wishes.
