Can mukti be achieved while the soul has a body?

Within Mukti, there lies the ultimate peace (Shanti), the ultimate knowledge (Videh), the ultimate enlightenment (kaivalya) and the ultimate paradise (Swarga)

Mukti is liberation. Yes, one can become liberated while the soul has a body. Devotees of the Lord desire neither liberation, nor material existance. They are firmly fixed on service to God, whether liberated or embodied. Therefore, they are already liberated. The body has ceased to have meaning, because their lives have been purified, and therefore, spiritual already.
