Hi. I dont have tv in my home.but i do have setup box and projector. Is it possible to connect projector with setup and watch tv .

When you say "setup box", I assume you mean "set-top box" ... It may be possible.
There will be three possible issues.

  • ■ Audio. Projectors usually don't have speakers.
    ■ HD programming. The projector may not be HDCP compatible
    ■ Connectors. You didn't list the projector or set-top box models so there is no way to recommend the appropriate cables.

I think it's possible. But I would agree with Kanewolf to know your product models first.

I have an AAXA M5 projector and use it with Amazon Fire Stick all the time. Also, I know it would work with Roku and Chromecast as well. My projector sounds well. But many other models would sound shady.

Also, if you want to replace TV with a projector, you also have to consider a lot of factors, such as room/projection size, control over light. I have a post about projector consideration factors. Feel free to have a look.
