Tim:
Yes, it is possible to learn to paint that way. Certainly for some it will be easier than for others - it was not easy for me.
The thing is, when you compartmentalize things for a new artist, it really can help them get their mind around the concepts. I have seen a 48 year old flight attendant, who has never picked up a brush in her life, do a very detailed monochrome underpainting in a week when she was first taught about value and told to focus on just that.
If I may steal a line from the Bible: Clearly there are many paths to so great a truth...
