Not possible under NFHS rules. Batting the ball is done with the hand(s) per
4-15-1” . . . A dribble is ball movement caused by a player in control who
bats [intentionally strikes the ball with the hand(s)] or pushes the ball to the floor once or several times. It is not a part of a dribble when the ball touches a player’s own backboard.”

No, but this action does not take place during the course of normal play inbounds. This is a throw-in and that must be done with the hand(s) as noted in the rules cited above.
