Sure.
1,5,6,8
2,4,6,8
3,4,5,8
4,4,5,7
5,5,5,5
Method:
Started from the bigger numbers, and partitioned into 5 parts of 20: {8,8,4}, {8,7,5} and so on.
Then swapped a big number with two smaller ones (with the same sum) on another row until I had 4 numbers on each row.
With some fiddling, it's also possible to get all the columns to add up to 25:
1,8,6,5
5,4,7,4
5,5,5,5
6,4,2,8
8,4,5,3
And here's a magic square (with duplicates, unavoidably) followed by a row of fives:
1,6,8,5
5,7,4,4
8,5,4,3
6,2,4,8
5,5,5,5
