Yes, it is possible.

Let's suppose you have a MS SQL server named myserver, DB called newtest and a sql table called Table_1. Table_1 consists of one column called Email.

You intend to write a query that generates an email in power bi and you desire to write back that value in the table.

This is how you do it

let
  Source   = Sql.Database("myserver", "newtest"), 
  emailVal = "2@xyz.com", 
  Custom1  = "INSERT INTO [newtest].[dbo].[Table_1] (Email) VALUES('" & emailVal & "')", 
  Custom2  = Value.NativeQuery(Source, Custom1)
in
  Custom2
