Is it possible to build a wheel that will spin only so fast, but no faster?

Say that you are on roller blades, but you are not allowed to change the angle of the wheels against the ground: your wheels are paralleled to the direction you are moving. You begin to make a walking motion as you slide. Is it possible to design a system so that you use this walking motion to propel yourself?
