Can i check compression if i dont have a cam?

I need to check the compression on a 240d engine block that i have. I want to verify that the engine is good before i begin the task of replacing the worn engine in my 240. Right now it is missing the camshaft, timing chain, oil pump and chain, injection pump, and both manifolds. all the valves and springs are in place tho. If the answer is no, i guess i will install a chain and cam
