It's definitely possible for UPRNs to be assigned to streets. I think
you can tell this by searching for such a UPRN at
https://www.findmyaddress.co.uk/ (I don't look at that now since they
added a new T&C forbidding any use of the information for competing
purposes.) IIRC, that site will tell you if a UPRN you enter is a
street reference, and then refuse to provide the usual address
information.

It could well vary by local authority, but looking at the pattern of
URPNs near where I live, it certainly seems that there is one assigned
to every public road. There is consistently exactly UPRN at one end or
the other of each road. The pattern is quite obvious if you look at a
housing estate with lots of little roads.
