No it isn’t. “You” is defined as a function of “forward” entropy, you’d have to change how reality executes it’s functions – but in a localized way. Everything we’ve ever accomplished has been playing with in the rules of how reality functions, nothing we have ever observed has ever changed those things themselves
What answer are you looking for? This seems to be a pattern for you, to seek an answer you already know the answer to, what exactly do you want to hear?
No. There isn’t a “past” existing somewhere you can get to. All the stuff that made up the past is the stuff that’s here in the present in an altered forms. All the stuff that makes up the present will be the stuff of the future but in altered forms. There is nothing to go back to even if you could somehow detach yourself from the present which is impossible.
I always wondered, if someone stands in a certain spot, and moves forward or backwards in time, how would they not end up in the void of space?
The planet is always spinning and moving, the whole milky way galaxy is moving through the universe. Wherever they started their time travel journey would be nowhere close to where they are going to in the past or future.
I do think it’s entirely possible that in the future, virtual realities indistinguishable from true reality could exist. Then you could “travel” to a reality that is indistinguishable from the true past, and create a new reality from it by making different decisions.
On the one hand, it’s obviously not time travel, but on the other, it’s indistinguishable from it.

>Is backwards time travel possible
No. Definitely not with our current understanding of physics, and likely not at all.
>and would our consciousness change with it?
Also not likely. You yourself aren’t going to change because you violated the laws of physics (in and of itself, anyway).
My girlfriend is in Hawaii at the moment she time travelled a a day behind. (In world time) we live in Australia 🇦🇺
Basically, that’s all we have at the moment. There is no plausible way to know, for normal civilians anyway…
