Genuine question as someone new to the DnD rulesets... can you complete a battle sequence without combat?
At the living room table with your friends and a good human DM who is open minded? Absolutely.
In BG3? I have actually come across a fair few boss encounters you can talk your way out of, but certain fights are unavoidable.
Do you mean in the tabletop DnD game? That's going to be a big "depends." Varies depending on what the GM (Gamemaster) is like and the party's capabilities.
It’s possible. You could charm or put the enemy to sleep and flee
I have not seen a fight you can stop in the fight without using fighting. You can flee but the enemies are still there when you return.
