Based on my understanding, it's not possible. The float is the number of outstanding shares.

Mike, you might want to update your understanding or edit your post before the window runs out.

From: help.yahoo.com

"Float This is the number of freely traded shares in the hands of the public. Float is calculated as Shares Outstanding minus Shares Owned by Insiders, 5% Owners, and Rule 144 Shares.
"

Since Insiders, 5% Owners and Affiliates (see rule 144) can also be Institutions, we can have Institutions own more than 100% of the float.
