Yes.

Select your range of cells in P, with P2 active, then
CF/ Cell Value Is/ Greater Than/ =D2
and Format as appropriate.

Otherwise apply the format to P2 and use Format Paint to copy down
Or, as a third optionn, Copy from P2 and Paste Special/ Format

Is it possible to apply a conditional formatting in cases where each value
in
column P exceeds the adjacent value in column D.

I have several hundred rows and would like to do this without visiting
each
individual cell in column P.
