No, it is not possible.

You need to buy an Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes gift card.

The gift card for everything Apple

Where to buy a physical Apple gift card:

Actually, you can buy an Apple gift card at many places, it depends of course on where you live.

At an Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Reseller in your region certainly, but also at a good bookstore, supermarket and/or drugstore.
