Is it possible? Can someone give me the needed config files? Thanks!

It's difficult and involves a bit of modding. You'd have to create a new entity (civ file) that has whatever creature you want to play as its creature, then make that entity into an adventure-mode-playable entity. Now, creating an entity solely for adventure mode isn't as difficult as making an entity that will actually survive world generation. You could probably just copy one of the preexisting entities to the top of entity_default.txt, for instance the human entry, change the line that says [ENTITY:PLAINS] to [ENTITY:DRAGON] or somesuch, change the line that says [CREATURE:HUMAN] to [CREATURE:DRAGON], and change the line that says [ADVENTURE_TIER:1] to [ADVENTURE_TIER:4]. That, in theory, would make dragons playable. You might get dragon civilizations that survive world gen like that, though they'll probably get wiped out due to slow breeding. Even if the civilized dragons go extinct, you could still play them.

Hmm.. mod in a creature called Armok, then proceed to wreak havoc!

OK, cool! How do I breathe fire as a dragon?

You don't    we all want to but it's not possible to do things like breath attacks in direct control mode now.

From my experience, it isn't difficult at all. All you have to do is add these tags
        [OUTSIDER_CONTROLLABLE]
   [INDIV_CONTROLLABLE]
This has let me play as dragons, beasts and what ever else you see in your objects folder. Make sure you go to your region (savegame)>raws> objects and then all those texts show all the creatures and you just add those two tags thats it. I have never had to create new civilizations, unless that lets you open doors, because many a time as a beast, im stuck in a building.

To open doors you need to add the ability to grasp to a body part.

At the time this post was made, the above method was the only way

No, just add [CANOPENDOORS].

Maybe it was for (carnivores) not starving to death?

Yes. Dragons are [NO_EAT], though.
