Is it possible to use Whatsapp without an Apple or Android phone device?

Yes it is possible. You can actually install an Android emulator and then run WhatsApp from the emulator:
- Download the Bluestacks Emulator On Your Pc from link given above.
- Install Bluestacks App Player on your Pc and then login with your Gmail ID.
- Now click on Search icon or click on My Apps and then App Search.

Solution 2:
An alternative solution to Bluestacks is hosting a Android virtual machine, like AndroVM on VirtualBox. I think it is a better and less intrusive solution. If you don't have a real Android device to "activate" WhatsApp, this is how you can activate it on your virtual machine:
- Start the authentication process on your WhatsApp in virtual machine.
- When required, enter a valid number, one that you have access to.
- When being prompt, mark that you prefer a voice call over SMS
- Write down the activation code into the emulated WhatsApp
Alternatively:
- use your phone's number and receive the SMS message there
- Install an fake sms app on your Android virtual machine
- Create a fake SMS EXACTLY like the one you got on your phone
- Wait for WhatsApp to activate
