It’s not possible having file without storing it, because file is actually a way to store data. If you keep data in memory, it’s not a file.

Maybe you wanted to ask whether you can attach data to an email without actually generating a file. The answer is “Yes, it’s possible”. SysMailerMessageBuilder class has addAttachment() method, which accepts a stream of data. If you actually have a file, use SysMailerMessageBuilder.addAttachmentFromFile() instead.
