uterine transplant has been done but with very very poor outcome due to rejection of the organ.
most people who have organ transplants take anti rejection drugs in high does for quite some time - even for life.

it is not possible to carry a successful pregnancy whiole on those drugs.
without the drugs the body rejects the "new uterus".

so, for now the answer is no.
