    i hadn't experienced it but i think it's possible. for example somebody from your contacts can send you a corrupted pdf/doc/other vulnerable type document and you will probably open it. i mean sometimes people can infect other without having such a purpose on their minds. sometime ago there where funny infected powerpoint slides circulating and people though they were cute things to share with others. gmail spam filter won't help you in this case.
