You most certainly can build a practical radio without AGC. In fact all radios built before AGC was invented didn't feature it. Granted, it does make the radio more stable in operation. Most All American Fives did not feature AGC. Almost any schematic shows the diode plate that would be used for AGC either paralleled to the detector diode plate or just connected to the cathode. A typical schematic is shown [http://207.57.8.9/art/gt051.jpg here]. In this one the AGC diode plate is connected to the cathode rendering it ineffective.
