If you mean Minecraft, Protection V is not obtainable through ordinary survival gameplay. A command-modified item is a separate case: commands can bypass normal enchantment restrictions. The title alone could refer to another game, but Minecraft is the likely context here.
What is the normal maximum level?
The Minecraft Wiki lists Protection IV as the enchantment’s normal maximum level. In ordinary survival play, that makes IV the highest level to seek or combine through normal gameplay.

Can a Minecraft item have Protection V?
Yes, in a command-modified context. The Minecraft Wiki notes that commands can bypass restrictions enforced by the /enchant command, allowing enchantments beyond ordinary gameplay limits. That is different from obtaining Protection V through normal survival play.
What does Protection do?
Minecraft Help describes Protection as reducing most types of damage by 4% for each level. That explains the enchantment’s effect; it does not mean every level is normally obtainable or establish an unlimited effect.
