5,027 PointsFirst of all, why are you trying to achieve inline-block without using inline-block?
My questions aside, you can achieve limited fake version by adjusting padding and margin of inline element explicitly. But this is just not worth your time. It doesn't even suit for learning purpose.
Alternatively you write your own CSS-like language using other programming languages which is beyond my scope.
