No. Extensive studies have show that Rabies, once symptoms have set is, is virtually 100% deadly. (There was a case for a young girl where an experimental treatment was used after symptoms had set in. She recovered, but was mentally retarded due to damage caused by the disease. Said experimental treatment has not worked in all cases either).

The only way to survive a rabies exposure is to get the post-exposure treatment (a series of injections) prior to symptoms. Some symptoms include, but are not limited to: flu like symptoms (headache, irritability, fever), later the victim becomes confused and begins to loose lucidity, followed by convulsions and death. The shots are not something you want to wait to do.

You can read up on Rabies at the CDCs website.
