For someone your age, it's not impossible, but you'll not likely ever become a gold medalist. That being said, if you get an instructor that is strict about you keeping your fingers close to the chanter (not so easy), and light to the touch (easier for women), and you practice a couple of hours a day 5 days a week, you could become a decent piper.
