Yes if you are light enough. Limiting factor is the tibia since generally its canal is tighter so you cant put the thickest precise 2. Also it holds more of your bodyweight compared to femurs. Therefore if you can do it with tibia, femurs wont change much. I will be in that situation in 3 days after the femur surgery. Currently only lengthening tibia. However due to the surgery your legs will tire pretty fast. Even if they don't, your arms will depending on your walking technique using the walker. Its uncomfortable for me to stand or walk with a walker more than 5 minutes at a time. Thats enough time for me to do daily chores though. Theres wheelchair for things that take longer.
