TL;DR
Realistically no: without a diploma, experience and a proper work permit you won't find legal, well-paid work — at best informal gigs like food delivery or handing out flyers, sometimes paid in food rather than cash.
Without a degree or work experience, getting an official work permit is practically impossible — employers look specifically for a diploma and proven track record.
The realistic informal options without papers or experience are food delivery or handing out flyers — sometimes payment is literally in food rather than cash.
Despite the obstacles, if you're motivated it's worth trying — any work experience abroad is valuable, don't let others' skepticism hold you back.
