Want to install Sharepoint server 2007 sp2 on Windows 2008r2 with only local users and NO Active Directory. Is this possible?

Yes - you can run it with forms authentication using the SQL Membership provider. Most of the documentation assumes AD will be there but if you dig around the net there's a number of guides around where people have done it without an AD.

If you're asking about running it using the local Windows accounts on a server then I think that's a no but I'm not certain on this point.

You can use local NT user accounts if you wish. SharePoint will recognize COMPUTERNAME\USER instead of DOMAIN\ADUSER. Just set the users under the "Users" group.
