No. Being vegan is unhealthy, regardless of taking artificial supplements. You will most likely be deficient of B12, vitamin D, calcium, ... Also vegetal protein is different from animal protein; afaik animal protein is better and easier to digest for humans. You notice the vegan effects it with time: cognitive functions diminish, weaker, hair becomes unhealthy like hair loss, ...
So if you want, take vegetarianism as a compromise.
And never suggest anyone to be vegan or vegetarian (would you like leading people you care for being unhealthy, dying early?). Suggest decreasing animal products production and consumption, mainly thinking about sustainability (emissions) and healthy issues (evidence of utraprocessed red meat is carcinogen), and unnecessary suffering because of consumerism. Take veganism, vegetarianism as a your own philosophy if you wish.
