nope. you can install only in either of Windows Authentication mode or SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode not SQL Server authentication alone

Even if it does allow how are you going to authenticate the sql service after the installation ?

Then explicitly deny connect access to the windows login.But make sure you save the sa username password somewhere with high security because if you loose it there is no way you can then be able to login to the sql server or have any admin rights to the server.
