I would like to know if it is possible to install pocket doors in an opening of 103" x 80" Help

You can install a pocket door in a 24"x24" opening or even smaller. I have custom made pocket doors for that size to access crawl spaces.

Keep in mind that there are many different kinds of pocket doors.

The key to pocket doors is the width of the wall.

So the answer is yes.
