Yes, it is possible to have a heart form another (dead person who has donated it for this use after death) person transplanted into you. The person giving you the heart has to match your tissue type and you would need to take immune suppressant drugs for the rest of your life. People with transplanted hearts live for many years quite satisfactorily.
