Like actually live underground. Tree farm underground. Wheat underground. Maybe farm animals underground? What are the problems with that? Or do you have to go up every once in a while to kill animals or chop wood?

Defining the terms
LivingWhat counts as "living" in Minecraft is very relative. Can you survive for an arbitrary time period? Sure, just put a beacon on the surface, set it to regeneration and wall yourself in closeby. No further action required. But is that fun? Would you consider that "playing a game"? I don't think so.
UndergroundIt's also a matter of definition what you consider "underground":
This can continue, "underground" is a pretty relative term and the only really clear definition would be "blocks above you". And I've played a Skyblock-like map recently while always having blocks above me, I wouldn't consider that "underground".
The (im)possibility of doing things underground
But let's still try to consider what is possible and what not. Let's define underground for this case as: "living in caves, generated or dug, with a considerable distance from the surface". Then it would be impossible to acquire:
Of course some things could possibly be acquired, but it would be really difficult, like getting villagers (heal zombie), getting items from loot chests (only heart of the sea appears exclusively in treasure chests close to the surface and even they are usually buried) and so on.
Some more things depend on how strict or loose you define the rules. Also, many things depend on how long you are on the surface before you go down forever. If you create the world and instantly run into a cave, you're going to have a hard time at first. But if you first e.g. punch a few leaves and some grass, then it's much easier.
Things that are possibleA lot of things are possible though, probably surprisingly:
