Definitely. Obviously it's always slower without gear, but I started with a monk on this server and solo'd about 3/4 of 1-37 with little to no trouble (or gear, at first). Around 35-40 soloing will slow down quite a bit without a fungi and/or other twinkage, but it's still very doable - especially for iksars with the extra regen.
I would recommend ignoring the monk weight limit until at least level 20+ if you go this route - I was regularly about 50 or 60 pounds over while leveling and barely noticed a difference until I hit ~25-30. It will be much more beneficial to you to make the extra cash starting out.
