It is entirely possible to fly any aircraft at an airspeed of less than 10 Knots but not stalled - because the angle of attack is less than that at which the stall occurs.
- a little 'pie in the sky', DFC - you need to add 'but not in any sort of controlled flight nor for very long', just as it is not possible to stall an aircraft at zero g, but again, not for long..
