If you're very very popular you can live off ads. Theyre the ones who can negotiate bigger cuts. Otherwise no. A lot of the content creators I watch are demonetized but google still runs ads. I try to support them directly - morally speaking I think it's the right thing to do to stand up against both hard and soft censorship. If you're in the mood to donate to Google's profit margins feel free though. They do have an expensive lawsuit to fight against accusations of being an abusive monopolist and I'm sure they could use your cash to help out.
