Probably not, BATFE will not issue a FFL to anyone unless you can obtain a local business license, if applicable, for the type of FFL you're applying for. You'll have to rent space in an appropriately zoned area and obtain a local business license first.

Another thing to consider is that BATF requires a secure storage area for the firearms. Sometimes a large gun safe in the garage of a home will suffice. Those gun safes small and light enough for apartments don't usually meet the requirements. Good luck in your endeavors.
