Without an avatar? Still heck yes. I've been throwing around this idea in my head about what it would be like for a human to join a Na'vi tribe, using some technology to make up for their shortcomings (hang glider for Ikran, atv for Pa'li, etc), but otherwise living the way they do. Food for thought.
If you were offered the chance to go to Pandora, would you?

With an avatar? In an attosecond.

This question is more appealing to one's emotions. Perhaps a more realistic approach to the question would include some factors to consider before making your decision.
First: Knowing you would spend over 5 years of your life asleep while you travel there, with no certainty that you'd survive the trip considering the hazards of space travel. Don't forget the return trip is the same distance and time....so over 10 years of your life would be in transit.
Second: What would you do or learn before you go so you can contribute to such a long and dangerous mission to a another world.???
Third: What about your family on Earth? Parents, children, siblings, reunions, etc...all the things that we gauge our life by. Don't forget Christmas! Could you accept the separation factor? Could they accept it??
Forth: There's no promise that you'd be accepted by the Na'vi even if you make the trip. Hhhmmm.
With all that in mind and maybe you can think of other real world examples I left out, would you still be willing to step out into the great unknown and see what's there???
Speaking for myself, I think my answer would still be "YES" When you consider the big picture are YOU still onboard??

I would only go if I could have my own Avatar, I think the danger would keep me on earth if I couldnt get a Avatar.

Yes of course I will. I like the Pandora very much and but there shouldn't be any animals and my creature should be like an avatar. Then I will visit if I am bored.

I would go as the RDA but I would get myself an avatar body and then sneak away and ask some of the scientists to pretend I got eaten then join the na'vi, I would never kill or injure anybody except the RDA as I hate them, I would only join so that I could get to Pandora.

I wish to be reborn (reincarnated) whatever, as a Na'vi male (boy). I would be raised learning to be an omaticayan citizen and learn the ways of the Na'vi according to the laws of Eywa! The Na'vi learn from their elders, and older and experienced clans members.
The Na'vi do not have written language, but speak and communicate through songs and direct communications, this is as close as you can get to getting the words from the horses mouth??
I would then be trained through to a hunter / Warrior (Taronu Tsamsiyu), and be escorted up to Iknimaya to capture my own banshee (Ikran), to become: "Ikran Makto"
Oh! to dream!!
