Can a group generated by involutions the product of every two of which has order a power of 2 have an element of odd order?

Let $G$ be a group which is generated by the set of its involutions, and assume that the product of every two involutions in $G$ has order a power of 2. Is it possible that $G$ has an element of odd order $\neq 1$?
