Yes it is possible. 1: Mow the lawn really short. 2: Water it so it starts growing good. 3: Once the crab grass has grown up faster than the lawn grass and is clearly taller... use a sock pulled over a hockey stick and dipped in roundup, and swipe it on only the taller crab-grass.

First you need to keep it cut short so it can't seed. To keep from killing the rest of your grass use a natural, safe, non toxic week killer.
