Yes, but having a full range of weights and equipment makes it easier.

It's certainly possible to work out at home. While performing cardio exercises outside of the gym is generally not a problem, it may be challenging to formulate an effective and feasible lifting program to attain your specific goals.
By "toned", I'm assuming you're not referring to the actual definition of the amount of electrical activity in the muscle (as this would be difficult to assess, anyway), but to the desired look/feel of a muscle, in which case you may be able to get away with not requiring the progressive resistance that would be necessary for mass or strength gains. On the other hand, you may be limited in the effectiveness/types of exercises you can do without the aid of certain equipment.
