Yes, everything is possible! It all depends on how much effort you
want to invest. ;-)

One strategy could be using the address as the center of a circle,
create a very small circle, (a few hundred feet radius), and get
driving directions, in all directions, from the center to a point on
the circle, using the lat/lon of the circle, like this:

Examine the results manually and find the street names returned.
Repeat using increasingly large circles until you find the
neighbouring streets.
