Is it possible to lose body fat while building muscle at the same time?

assuming no drugs, it depends on how close you are to your natural limit.
maxed out, you will lose some muscle and strength.
if you're skinny fat, then you can gain tons of muscle

Yes. If your lbm stays the same during a cut then you’ve put on muscle. Adipose tissue is approx 10% water and 2% protein so for every 10 pounds of fat you lose, 8.8lbs is fat mass and 1.2lbs is lean mass.

Eating fat has nothing to do with how much fat your body holds. Keep your macros in check and simply continue your training but adjust your diet to have a 500 Cal deficit each day. It will slowly melt off. You will lose muscle with it, but that's the con of being a natty.

If you are a beginner, yes.
If you are on roids, yes.
Otherwise, probably not but only one way to see. Do you continue increasing your lifts in a deficit?

lift heavier, run farther

The only way to get rid of bodyfat is to make your body use it for energy. The only way to do that is eat fewer calories than your body uses. You can either eat less, exercise more, or preferably both. Download My Fitness Pal.

So if I eat like 2000 kcal per day, deficit should be 500 kcal? Isn't that too much?
