Is it even possible to lose without a king?

You can stalemate it if you have no valid moves, or lose via time. I think you can technically lose to the repeated moves rule too? But then again that's applying tournament rules to this scenario so...

Some would say you've lost before you even began.

But there is an interesting chess variant called horde where Black must capture all of White's pieces to win.
