For me, I learned the vocabulary basics for Spanish in Spanish I & II in high school. At this point, I could read and write a fair amount of Spanish, but I could not speak it very well.
The summer before I took Spanish III, I started playing soccer in a nearby park with some hispanic people, which is where I learned to start speaking Spanish. At first I was very slow and it took me quite a while to try and translate in my head what I was going to say. I often mis-conjugated words when I spoke and sometimes the meaning of what I wanted to say was lost.
I progressively starting getting into Spanish music (Reggaeton and Bachata) and began looking up the lyrics as I listened along to the songs. I also began watching movies I was familiar with in Spanish and turning on the English subtitles.
Somewhere between Spanish 3 and Spanish 4 I decided I was going to major in Spanish and therefore starting taking things more seriously. I started hanging out with more hispanic people and then I started go to a hispanic church. I learned a LOT about Spanish language from church. The words and 'slang' that you learn there is so much different then the street language most Hispanics will teach you.
So as I tell everyone who asks me: "I learned it a bit of everywhere. Reading and writing from school and speaking from hanging out with hispanic people".
The only true way to be able to speak a language is to spend time with the people who actually speak it. There is only so much a teacher can teach you if you are not able to communicate with other people who speak the language natively.
The more languages you can learn, the better it is for you. Spanish is one of most spoken languages on the world nowadays.
The best way to learn Spanish is in Spain. Go to the markets and barter, order in restaurants, and talk with the locals. You will soon learn to talk Spanish properly. If you learn from a book or website you will learn the type of Spanish that most locals cannot actually recognise! As a last resort, take a Spanish class at your local college.

Yes, it is definitely possible and ultimately one of the best ways to learn Spanish. By cooking whilst learning Spanish, you will be able to learn about different regions of Spain and their specialities. You will be able to see how each region of Spain differs and all their contrasting cooking techniques. Cooking also creates other advantages for learning Spanish. For example, you will have to learn the Spanish ingredients and follow the recipes in Spanish. After cooking some Spanish dishes you will learn new words and phrases that you never knew before. Cooking is a repetitive task so these words will not be forgotten and after the course you will still be able to remember them. Cooking is one of the most enjoyable ways to learn Spanish and should be done if you want to learn the Spanish language.
