Can I tap Sorrow's Path to damage my own creatures if there are no blocking creatures?

Can I tap Sorrow's Path knowing the first ability has no targets and will fizzle?

No, that doesn't work. If a spell or ability has targets, you have to be able to choose enough legal targets for it in order to cast/activate it at all. If you can't choose two blocking creatures an opponent controls to target then you can't activate Sorrow's Path's first ability. You'll have to find some other way to tap it.
