No because even avoiding answering can be a lie. A lie of omission.
The key being that you are hiding some detail or information in an attempt to deceive, that is what makes it a lie.

In that case, no one can ever tell the truth. Because you can never know what thing you’ve accidentally left out might be considered relevant to the person you’re talking to.
