No, it is not possible to e-file your state return before you e-file your federal. However, you can e-file your federal return along with your state return and choose to mail in your payment voucher. Then, you can wait until after your receive your state refund to mail the payment in. You are not required to pay your federal taxes when you e-file your return. You have until April 15th to pay them.
