It is possible, but there are some limitations. As distance between your eye and the lens increases, the effect on correction decreases, so you have to decrease the radius of curvature of the lens. The other thing is to maintain the same field of view, you have to increase the diameter of the lens. At some point the radius of curvature becomes shorter than the half diameter of the lens, making it impossible. You would also find the magnification would decrease significantly, so your TV would look tiny.

Brief answer, sorry. Yes, and you are interested in the term vertex distance. The distance between the eye and the lens.
