No, if you could find a dense enough power source it would be possible.

I rather suspect batteries will never cut it, but something like a high temperature superconductor ring looping a lot of current which can be siphoned off using induction could make this happen.

Though I’m not really sure a laser would be the way to go personally. I think with that kind of energy source available you’re better off with a railgun.
