Is it possible to compress a partitioned index without causing any blocking?

I have 35 partitions that have a clustered index and 2 non-clustered indexes. I would like to compress these partitions, but blocking seems to occur when tried. Is there any way to accomplish this task without blocking? please see my code below

ALTER INDEX PK_indexName 
ON dbo.tblName  REBUILD PARTITION = ALL 
WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = PAGE ON PARTITIONS (1 TO 35))

Thanks
