The only way you can do it is by using an external effect. Ancient Rules can special summon it, for example, Mausoleum of the Emperor can let you pay 2000LP to Normal Summon it without tribute.
Phoenix Gearfried's 'second summon' to activate its Gemini effect, does not require tribute. But unless you've got a specific way around it, you still need to tribute two monsters to summon it initially from hand.

Is a special summon the same as a tribute summon?
No. A Tribute Summon is a kind of Normal Summon. Special Summons are just Special Summons even if the special summon requires some form of Tribute. That does not make it a Tribute Summon.
Is tribute summon the same as normal summon in yugioh?
A tribute summon is a form of Normal Summon. So that means you can only tribute summon OR normal summon ONCE per turn.
Is a synchro summon the same as a tribute summon?
Not quite. A Synchro Summon is a Special Summon. A Tribute Summon is the same as a Normal Summon, except that when you Tribute Summon you need to tribute monsters. Also you can Special Summon as many times as you want to in a turn, whereas you can only Normal Summon OR Tribute Summon once per turn, except with a card effect.
Can you tribute the same turn during a normal summon?
You can definitely tribute a monster on the same turn as a Normal Summon, ie, you can normal summon Exiled Force and tribute it for its effect. What you can't do is tribute it for a Tribute Summon because this is another Normal Summon, you can't perform two in a turn unless an effect allows you to do so. But you can tribute that monster for other things, like an activation cost or for a special summon.
Can you Tribute Summon a monster in face-up Defense position?
No, a Tribute Summon follows the same position rules as a Normal Summon, so a monster you Tribute Summon is either face-up attack or Tribute Set into face-down defense.
