Absolutely. It's called the lambda calculus. And it's very interesting
to work things out using lambda calculus, and figure out the semantics
of statements... but would you really want to program in the lambda
calculus?

Even the textbooks allow multiple parameter functions, with the
understanding that \xyz <whatever> is really \x \y \z <curried
whatever.
