Yes I think it can be alligned without extraction of any tooth. In order to create space for allignment we will have to do proximal reduction of .5 mm of few teeth. Proximal means sides of tooth. In such cases caste analysis gives you the best picture. For that you will have to visit a dentist.
Next Steps
go visit a dentist tell him take impression of both upper and lower arch and do caste analysis to determine the space required for allignment.
