Is it possible to write to a specific character cell in a terminal in Python 3 without the help of a library? If not, what library would be best for this purpose?

Use the curses module. If you really don't want to, you can write codes to your terminal. All codes are here.

You can send them using sys.stdout.write():

sys.stdout.write("\033[10;16H#")
