No. It is not posible.
If he is doing so it is illegal plus if he is over minimum limit he should get registerd or he might face severe consequences

The probalem could be that the client/ cusotmer may not get credit and you would have to send the registration certificate later for him to claim the same. |

If the service tax is collected by any person, whether registered or unregistered, It is mandatory to deposit such service tax to the credit of central govt.
Yes section 73a specifically p[rovides that such payments are tobe depoited with the revenue.
An alternative if not liable is to pay the same back to the cusomter and proof of the same retained.
