Yes, you may be able to take a loan out from your whole life insurance policy.

It usually takes several years before your whole life policy builds up some cash value.

You may be able to take up to 80% of the cash value as a loan, depending on the insurance company regulations for loans.

If you do not pay back the loan there may be taxes to be paid on your loan. Also, if the loan amount is not repaid, it may affect the amount of life insurance provided by your whole life policy.
