Hey Danny! Sorry, no, that's not possible: you're asking if something can be "in the blockchain" and also "not get confirmation" at the same time, which is not possible, because being "in the blockchain" is the definition of getting confirmed. "Not getting confirmed" means the transaction never gets into the blockchain at all. Yes, it's possible to create a transaction that never gets into the blockchain (it may be valid, but has too low a miner's fee, so doesn't get included in a block in a timely fashion, or it may be "non-standard", which only gets mined by certain clients and rejected by others), that would be a transaction in the "memory pool" awaiting confirmation.
