It is possible, but in my opinion pointless. In fact DKIM without
DMARC is problematic at least, precisely because there are
organisations which send some emails conforming to one or other
standard (or both) and others emails which do not, and the recipient
cannot be confident that non-conformant emails should be rejected -
the very situation you have in mind.

In theory adding DKIM to some emails should not cause any problems.
Might some recipient MTAs see that your domain has a DKIM record in
DNS and then 'downgrade' (treat as spam) or block emails from such
domain that don't have DKIM? I am not sure how big this risk is, but I
can't see you gain anything by running it.

Are you sure your Exchange server can't implement DKIM?
