If you do any stock photography, agencies will pretty much not look at anything these days if it has a recognizable person and no model release. Fortunately, the old pen and paper days are behind us. Google "model release app" to find one you can do with your smartphone or tablet.
However, if you are simply asking whether you can take photos of people without having them sign a model release, the answer is "yes".
