Real-life can be art, for example, dancing and acting, if that is what Brycen means. And to answer his other question, yes it can be. As Thomas E. Wartenberg has explained in his essays, art can pretty much be anything that is pleasing to ones' eyes.
For instance, one can find a spider web and find it pleasing (thus, similar to what John Dewey has stated about whether or not animals could make art), and consider it art.
If you look at the world through a photographer's eye, anything can be a possibility of becoming a piece of art depending on how one looks at it. Taking a picture of it on a Kodak or Nikon or any other type of camera only makes one feel like it's more official as a work of art. You don't have to look through a pair of lenses to consider something you see a work of art.
