Not easily while processing the input one at a time.  You can,
however, read one line of input and then split it:

  s = input()
  bits = s.split()
  if len(bits) != 8:
    what_now("?")
  else:
    for bit in bits:
      do_something(bit)

You could make it a bit more robust with something like:

  answers = []
  while len(answers) < 8:
    s = input()
    answers.append(s.split())
  del answers[8:] # we only want 8, so throw away extras
  for answer in answers:
    do_something(answer)

which would at least ensure that you have 8 entries.
