Hello,
Is is possible to serialize and deserialize an object without physically creating the file on the disk? I mean keeping everything in the memory?

Sure. ObjectOutputStream can use any OutputStream to write to. If you use ByteArrayOutputStream you can at the end retrieve the byte array with the contents. You pass that into a new ByteArrayInputStream with which you create an ObjectInputStream.
