Probably not.  Why do you say probably not? 

It's because:

1. Realistically your potential income from paid online surveys will vary with your demographics.  If, for instance, you are an upper middle class, middle aged woman living in a large metropolitan area such as Boston or Washington D.C. (and most parts of the megalopolis in-between) you will be offered a large number of paid online surveys. 

However, if, for instance, your income is low and you live in a relatively sparsely settled rural area, you will receive much fewer offers.

You see, paid surveys are about marketing, and marketing is about money.  Where there is more money and more people there is a bigger market.  And so, these areas and the people there will offer better prospects of future sales.  This means they will therefore be of more interest to market researchers, hence more surveys.  The reverse is also true, going the other direction for lower income, more sparsely settled areas.

2.  While there are exceptions, it is generally the case that the amount of money required to support yourself is higher in the more densely populated, higher income areas, and less in the lower income less populated areas. So it logically follows that if you position yourself to be in low cost areas these will also be low survey areas, and vice versa. 

Your choices tend to boil down to either living in higher survey income areas with higher cost of living or lower cost areas with lower survey income.  Either way the economic rules work against your being able to generate more income than that which you need to cover your costs.

In summary: Probably not, because favorable demographics for high survey income and low cost of living are out of sync. High income areas go with high costs of living and low cost of living areas have low survey income potential.
