It depends on the force being applied and how still the fluid is still, but it's certainly plausible. Think of oobleck (cornstarch and water). Hitting with enough speed and force, the surface will act like a solid

Braniac, a British show kinda like mythbusters, filled a pool with custard and walked over it.

Ketchup is a non-Newtonian fluid and I'm pretty sure that wouodn't work Oobleck might though.

someone posted a video, replying to me, of people doing it with oobleck… it’s not very deep but they do run and ride a bike across it.
