Its certainly possible. Could get a video up for noises.
Should be fairly obvious where it cones from just poke about

Does the noise go away when its warm? could be the aux belt.

spray a load of WD40 on the fan belt, if it stops then its that and it will need replacing lol

Or just take some tyre chalk to the inside of the belt when it's running. But for the sake of 9 quid and 30 seconds work, could just replace the belt.

Try a new belt and if it's not that, with the car running, put a screw driver to the pump and put the other end to your ear and you will be able to hear it if it is that. Could also be the alternator
