Can you be so good at chess that you never lose [I mean being that dominant]

At chess i think not.

However, at tic-tac-toe, I am the best entity in the universe, no one can beat me.
Mathematically/logically it's impossible cause if you play against yourself, what would be the score? 🤔
Since chess has not yet been solved, there are probably still ways for a more powerful computer or technique that could make an engine even stronger than they already are.

Remember that a chess engine is still programmed by a human being who is imperfect. How could an imperfect person program a perfect chess playing program? Short answer: they can't. There will always be ways to improve things unless some day the game is solved.
Yes. Just have Fabiano and Magnus only play classical format against each other for the rest of eternity. Neither one will ever lose.
No, because we are not engines. We cannot calculate millions moves in a minute, and we cannot predict all our opponent's moves either. That being said, other factors should be taken into consideration as well (sleep, psychology, and such); no human can make perfect games all the times. Not even in very long games, since there's always someone better than us at chess who'll eventually make us blunder anyway.
If you memorize stockfish's playing style and strategy(I'm talking about deep down) we might stand a chance. I know a guy who beat stockfish and drew it by doing it. But that was like stockfish 5 but still. He was like 2200 USCF
Chess is just as solvable as tic-tac-toe, just a different magnitude of difficulty.
Without any bionic help I don't think a human could ever remember the 'solution' to chess whenever computers have the capacity to solve it within a reasonable time.

Furthermore I disagree with the remark about humans being imperfect ;-)
Everything that exists is perfect. Things that don't exist are either less perfect or too perfect.
