in the absence of agreement, it is possible.

It is a valid contact, if payment could be proved.

By just making a payment towards token money, it cannot be construed as an agreement.
You may communicate your decision to not to go with purchase and demand refund of the token money.
If the builder refuses then you can either approach RERA or civil court for recovery.
Since it will not fall under deficiency of service, a case before consumer commission may not be maintainable.

It is better to consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for refund of money paid to builder.
