Bitlocker with USB + PIN only, without TPM. Possible?

I want to only use USB key + PIN. Why? Although technically the PIN is stored on the USB KEY as 6 sets of 8 digits, if I accidentally leave the USB key in. Anyone can boot up computer. With a 4 digit pin, this might take a little longer.

So, is USB Key + PIN possible? Since, all the official documents point to not possible, I'm wondering if I'm heading in the wrong direction.
