No, it is not possible to avoid having multiple definitions of a label by using beq x1,x0,-2 instead of beq x1,x0,label. Both instructions will result in a branch to the previous instruction, which effectively creates a loop. However, using -2 instead of a label makes the code less readable and understandable. It is better to use labels to indicate the purpose of the branch instruction.
