Is is possible to get into advertising/copy-writing with little or no experience?
Yeah.
Spend an hour a day learning, a few hours a day on weekends. Do that for a whole year, and then start copywriting for free for rich + powerful people. Make them happy, get testimonials and case studies, BAM - you can start copywriting professionally.
Or you can be a shit copywriter and make ass money on upwork.

Listen: if Pakis and Indians on Fiverr and similar sites can sell "copywriting" services for real money with only a partial understanding of the english language, imagine what a native speaker can do.
Learn some basic courses and then get to work. Most people don't even know what good copy is anyway and will accept shit work.

fake it till you make it boo
I'm a non-native English speaker and I got into copywriting a couple years ago. (pic related)
Now I'm making $2000/month while I'm still in university (graduating in 1 month).
The trick is to be visible. Read books, consume courses on advertising, marketing, copywriting and take notes.
Use the notes to create valuable content about certain topics and share it in FB groups, forums, LinkedIn, /biz/, whatever. Just don't sell or ask anything, simply share.
If you do it consistently people will see you as an expert and will want to work with you. Also, you'll be learning at the same time.
You can get experience by going under an expert for little or no pay, just for the experience and seeing how everything works from the inside. This is called the "whoring" phase and most smart beginners jump in on this.
