I have a primary partition /dev/sda3 which is mounted on / (root) filesystem of size 45 GB.
We have a requirement to extend it to 100 GB. Is it possible?

Yes it is possible if you have spare free space. You can use partition editor tools like gparted for displaying and editing the current disk layout. Just be careful to backup all important data before you do it. DWYOR.
