I'm 18 years old and I would like to know if it is possible to me to take the GRE exam
and let's assume I passed the exam and got a good score
would that guarantee me a scholarship?
 
No and no.
 
The GRE exams are for graduate study. At 18 years, you are probably thinking of college? For those, one usually takes the SAT or ACT examinations.
 
There would be no point. You'd be better off focusing your efforts on aceing the sat or act. If you got a good score on the gre, most undergrad scholarships would not know what to think of it and you'd be thrown into a pile of outliers that likely would not get any scholarship, even if you passed it with a great score.
 
Also note that these exams are used only by universities in the US, as far as I know. Maybe also Canada.
