Entirely possible. I'd guess that most of these systems replace mechanical locks wide open to anyone with the right tools and a few hours of lockpicking training. In retrofits it's common for the mechanical lock to still be there as an override, so bumping/picking may still be the weakest link.
Most are probably also deployed next to windows which are vulnerable to rocks, and on doors which wouldn't stand up to a crowbar or boot.
Access control is mostly about deterring casual users and bounding/monitoring/revoking the access of legitimate employees. Systems designed to stand up to teams of security experts are something else entirely.
