2023 May Olympiad, 5

There are $100$ boxes that were labeled with the numbers $00$, $01$, $02$,$…$, $99$ . The numbers $000$, $001$, $002$, $…$, $999$ were written on a thousand cards, one on each card. Placing a card in a box is permitted if the box number can be obtained by removing one of the digits from the card number. For example, it is allowed to place card $037$ in box $07$, but it is not allowed to place the card $156$ in box $65$.Can it happen that after placing all the cards in the boxes, there will be exactly $50$ empty boxes? If the answer is yes, indicate how the cards are placed in the boxes; If the answer is no, explain why it is impossible
