That is a very plausible scenario.

Walter Mitty
Walter Mitty is an older man, I’d guess that he’s in his late 60’s or early 70’s, who leads two different lives. In his real life he’s a mild, quiet man who is easily bossed around by his pushy wife, but in his fantasized life he is always a calm, cool, and confident man who has the respect of many people.
In one of his daydreams he is the commander of a Navel hydroplane that has just sailed into a hurricane. "The Old Man’ll get us through" were the words of his crew. This daydream gives a good example of what Walter Mitty wishes he could be; a leader of some sort, who has many people who look up to him and admire him.

The profile fits. Scary, huh?
