It’s possible but right now is the worst time in the last 20 years to try to find an entry level position.
Coding is a job and possible aptitude and desire for good salary isn’t enough. Just like any other job, you should be motivated to do it 8 hrs a day 5 days a week for years on end.
The good thing is that this is something you can learn on your own on the side. So I would continue taking classes and seeing if coding is something you really do enjoy and wait for the markets to thaw, hopefully later on this year.

That makes it a great time to start learning to code, as a contrarian strategy. News of layoffs will create a stall in the pipeline; a year or two from now, when OP has learned enough to be ready for a job, demand should be returning.
- remote_phone 4y agoYes that’s what I said.
- marssaxman 4y agoAh, good to know! I took your meaning differently.
