No. All living organisms need food, and plants actually do eat!!! Not like we do, but through a process using sunlight called photosynthesis that takes place in the leaves. No leaves= no photosynthesis = no food.

Is there any way to keep an albino plant alive?

I am about to investigate it right now my self but I've heard people say that you can submerge the plant leaves with sugar and cut about 3mm off each leaf's tip to allow glucose to travel through the veins. If the leaves are big enough to be cut 3mm a day and the glucose is renewed every now and then, the plant can survive for approx. 3 - 4 months so they say but I'm not sure.
