Is it possible to live off of only the following things forever and maintain good health?

- Whey Protein Powder
- Fish Oil
- Flax Oil
- Borage Oil
- Multivitamin
- Fibre Supplement

If your answer is no, please explain why. If you say that fruits and vegetables are required to live, please back it up with evidence. Would you recommend any other combination of oils? Is the flax oil really needed, or would I achieve all the fatty acids I need just from fish and borage

No because you are not getting the fibrous carbs that come from vegetables, they keep you regular with your bowel movements, so you are affecting your digestive system there. You are not getting any slow burning carbs which are required to do your daily functioning, what your body will do at that point is begin to burn muscle for fuel in an equivalent way to if you were starving your body will then start to cling onto every possible calorie of fat you take in. You are not getting any calcium so your bones will start to deteriorate. You are not getting any antioxidents so when your blood tries to clot it will be unable.

PAY ATTENTION TO THIS PART
There is a reason that everything that you list here is labelled as a SUPPLEMENTS. You need solid foods to keep your digestive system moving, I don't understand why you want to go to the hospital so badly, why is it so bad to eat real food?
