Can you beat Metal Gear Solid without killing anyone?

Impossible in MGS1. You still have to kill few in order to progress story - 3 in cell, 4 in elevator (comm B), 3 in cargo elevator, 2 + 2 + 3 in escape route, and few extra depends on how game play goes. So likely you need to kill minimum 19 or 20 no matter how you play. You can finish game without saving once.

Is MGSV grindy?

It's only the end game that is grindy. Try doing to the FOB Event 150 times in a row. That's grindy. The SP side of the game isn't nearly as bad as you're making it out to be, although if resources are your problem, at least do the FOB Event a dozen times or so before you say it's grindy.
