But to answer your question, OP, if you're saying what I think you're saying, that you have no programming experience at all, hell no, you won't learn nothing in no week, boi.
Is it possible to learn python in one week

I'm being a systems administratoryou a Coli breh. You can learn that shyt in 5 days then take the weekend off to chill
But just out of curiosity OP, how core will programming be in your role?
Python is a pretty easy language
you don’t need 3 months. I have seen interns fixing bugs on flask and django projects within a couple of weeks
However since OP is a completely new to programming in general I would say it should take him a month of grinding 5 houra a day to Learn the basics: variables, arrays, loops and functions
They probably want you to write basic scripts
Reading and writing files
Changing names of files
copying files and moving them somewhere else in the file system
Zipping up files and uploading them somewhere else
If you already know the principles on Object Oriented Programming, learning a new language isn't that difficult. The syntax that comes with the language is the main thing that would need to be understood. However, if you don't understand OOP, then 
no you can't learn Python in a week.
no you can't learn Python in a week.
Might have to take this as a challenge and jump into a Udemy course when I free up some time.

THE PRICE OF MOUNJARO GOING UP!
A week? You trolling.
You can get basic terms down and shyt but programming will be a chore. Programming is best learned by doing. You can't cram and know it like you can for a math test.
If they expect you to have only a week of training and do anything beyond the most simple of tasks, I would tell them that is ridiculous. If they insist, look to move on because they are setting you up for failure.
But, if you are looking to study beyond the week to improve on your skills on your own, I recommend a udemy course. I had to learn React and I'm doing a course on there now and it's pretty good.
Edit: if they want you to do scripting, that's easier. If you know how to do other scripting like powershell and bash, then it makes sense to only take a week of the most basic of python and then you can just Google anything else you need. What I would do when I had to rewrite functionality in another language, I would write it in the language I'm comfortable with and then with Google and documentation, start to refractor into the desired language. If you know bash, write it in that first and then start transforming it over to python. You will also increase your python skills as you do this as well.

Nah, you will need more than a week.
Syntax/Formatting wise Python is pretty loose.

Learn it on their dime......If you have any issues on the job....ask the "smart guy"...not only will you get stuff done, but will also be getting private lessons.
And if they fire you....good....now you can say you have python experience and up your salary.
Work smarter, not harder
