If you mean can you work for the Navy Department as a Government Civil Servant, or even a non-government employee, without any prior Navy or other military service, then the answer is Yes, most definitely. The Navy employs many civilians in various roles all over the globe.
However, having said that, prior Naval or military service is preferable and helpful when seeking such employment, because virtually all Naval rates require a security clearance of some type. Once you've been cleared as part of military service, that Background Investigation stays with you for the rest of your life. Subsequent updates via update investigations augment previous BI data if or when necessary.
