Is it known that every block CAN produce a hash under target?

I'm not super knowledgeable about Bitcoin's internal workings, so sorry if this is a silly question:

Could there exist a block whose hash is above the target for every possible value of the nonce? If so, what would happen? Would mining of new blocks just halt for 2 weeks until the difficulty adjusts the target to something above what is possible?
