Yes, it is possible, at least using ftp. If you create ftp, or ftp-like service that allow only storing data in one particular directory for each user account (or server account if we would like to name it this way) and no listing directory or reading files (just a matter of file/dir permissions) then we got the solution. Server must ensure that no one could read or delete a file.
It is even possible to create service with anonymous login. It should serve one directory, for writing only (no read or list operations) as in previous case. Users should store files with uniqe names, to prevent write errors when new file have the same name as previously created.
It meets all your requirements. And it is possible to configure almost all common ftp deamons to do their work this way.
