I've got some kind of sticky residue all over an elm tree in by backyard.Is it possible for this residue to be comming from the tree itself?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

It could be excreted by a bug.
Contact your local county extension agent. Hopefully you can take in a few leaves (wear gloves and long sleeves) for examination.
